A. 
Typically, on a point-to-point interface both IP addresses are on the same interface. However, 
some service providers assign IP addresses that are in different subnets, and both IP 
addresses are negotiated using IPCP. Normally both IP addresses belong to the same subnet, 
but because the IP addresses negotiated belong to two different subnets, both routes need to 
be installed in the routing table. This behavior is the right behavior; otherwise, the router 
cannot forward packets. 
My customer has the link up as the primary connection. The customer can pass traffic 
through the primary connection, but cannot ping or perform Telnet into the router over 
the Internet from another location. 
The ping problem might be due to the fact that the IP address obtained from the provider is a 
dynamic address and within the provider pool. Hence a ping to this interface might be failing 
because of the policies set by the service provider. The workaround is to request a static public 
IP address that is dedicated to your customer; this workaround, however, costs a bit more. 
My customer has problems when trying to ping with a domain name, but does not have 
problems pinging with IP addresses. 
Add the following CLI under the cellular interface: 
 
ppp ipcp dns request 
interface Cellular0/3/0 
ip address negotiated 
encapsulation ppp 
dialer in-band 
dialer string gsm 
dialer-group 1 
async mode interactive 
ppp chap hostname Cisco 
ppp chap password 0 Cisco 
ppp ipcp dns request
