You need to have the remote end assign the SAME address OR let your HOST
end assign the address. You set up a user AND a dialing location in BOTH
units with static ip's and if your routing is correct, then the
dial-on-demand will work properly for incoming AND outgoing traffic.
Weve done it before and it is ESPECIALLY nice for ISDN as on-demand ISDN
is hardly noticable as that. It looks contniuous.

Look in the config guide near the back. There are samples of exactly how
to do this.
