That's on order.  





I'm just trying to figure out how to configure a backup port now.





We just installed a 100meg MPLS on a fiber ring.  The handoff is 2 fiber cables, one for the north loop and the other for the south loop.  Both terminate at the same data center, but only 1 is meant to be active at any one time.  So if the fiber on the north loop gets cut, the router should see a dead link and switch to the south loop.





I think I got it, but I'm waiting on Cisco to confirm.  The below config should switch over to Gi0/0/1 after 30 seconds of no signal on 0/0/0.





interface GigabitEthernet0/0/0

You need UDLD



ETA: are those pure L3 ports to the DC?
