No it wouldn't. Cisco's complain severely. Assuming you have a similar router with the other end of those 3 T1's, you would do something like this: > ! > hostname Cisco3620 > ! > ! > no ip name-server > ! > ip subnet-zero > no ip domain-lookup > ip routing > ! > interface Ethernet 0/0 > no description > ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0 > ! > interface Serial 0/0 > no shutdown > ip address 1.1.1.2 255.255.255.252 On the other end, you would have ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.252 > ! > interface Serial 0/1 > no shutdown > ip address 1.1.1.6 255.255.255.252 On the other end, you would have ip address 1.1.1.5 255.255.255.252 > ! > interface Serial 1/0 > no shutdown > ip address 1.1.1.10 255.255.255.252 On the other end, you would have ip address 1.1.1.9 255.255.255.252 > ! > ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 serial0/0 > ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 serial0/1 > ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 serial1/0 On the other end you would have ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 serial 0/0 ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 serial 0/1 ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 serial 1/1 > > ! > ! > ip classless > no ip http server > ! > end Now, this alone isn't going to give true load balancing ... your ip cache is going to make shortcuts to specific hosts so that traffic from client A to server B always goes over the same T1. You need to either turn off ip route cache in the interfaces, or use cef and do per-packet load balancing in the interfaces. > I tried this config with Cisco's config maker and I get IP address errors on > the serial ports, specifically being on the same subnet. > Would this do basic aggregation? -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Andrew W.
