Harold, >From my quick look at this product, it seems to use DNS changes for failover onto another ISP and keeping connectivity. It works different than how BGP would for redundancy, with some limitations.
BTW. How much does this product cost?

Our current provider is a 9mbps DS3 from Genuity. We are bringing in a seconds DS3 from PAJO at 6mbps for redundancy and to bring the usage down on the Genuity line. My question is what commands do I need to look into when I have the BGP4 setup on the router in order to handle the flow of traffic properly? 90% of our traffic is OUTBOUND (up to the internet) and we need to balance this traffic between the 9mbps and 6mbps connections. From what I am told this won't be an automatic process but something I will have to tweak on occation depending on if traffic demands change between the connections. How am I best going to control this outbound flow of traffic? My idea was that when one connection is using a high % I can manually modify a metric of some sort to make the router believe that that connection is not as preferred as it once was and start sending a little of the traffic over the other connection instead. Am I being realistic here?
