PPP Backup
PPP Backup allows an LX to dial a “backup” PPP connection if
contact to a given host is lost. The PPP connection is enabled as
a dial-on-demand, and thus is only active as needed. The PPP
backup system uses the trigger-action-rule subsystem to detect
when contact to the ping host is lost, and then activate the dial-
on-demand service.

PPP backup becomes a Demand Circuit when LX B can’t ping its
ping host 10.242.131.8 because the primary path is down. The
connection will not dial unless traffic is destined for a device
across the PPP link.
