Want to stop Cisco801 bringing up Ch2 as well as Ch1.

Hi,
I have a special deal with the teleco and ISP which means a flat rate for telephone charges provided I always dial out on a single dedicated ISDN number. However, heavy traffic on my network additionally brings up Ch2 which uses a different outgoing phone number, so my charges go up! I have issued the command "no ppp multilink" which appears to have been accepted (doesn't appear any longer when I do "show run&quot, but the second channel still activates. Increasing the "dialer load-threshold" helps matters, but I don't feel this is the total answer. Any clues anyone? Also, why do some "no ..." commands appear in "show run" and others don't? Please keep any answers as simple as possible, as I am still right at the bottom of a very steep learning curve!

Regards,
ROGER.

Hi GØAOZ !

Do you have a dialer load-treshold xx command in your routers config ( under int bri or int dialer ). If yuo have that might be the problem, issue a no dialer load-treshold.

Hi Jacro

Many thanks for your reply! It seems to have done the business for me - great!

In answer to your other question, Cisco IOS won't show any commands in the 'show run' output if they are the default setting. So if the default for a command is that it's disabled and you've got it disabled (ie. 'no [command]') then it won't show up, but if the default is that it's enabled but you've got it disabled, then it will show up.

Hi Poider

Thanks for the explanation re defaults etc listed in the "show run" output. Great! I'm learning something...
