I've not seen anyone do this commercially, but I can make this happen for you 
if you like. Let me know if you want to explore this, as I don't have this set 
up just yet as a commercial service. FWIW, I have done this on a couple of 
occasions (minus the BGP), but even the BGP session should be easily done.

TJ,

We can do that in-house for you if you wish.  We can do the bonding with MT and 
your own router here in our datacenter, and then go from there.  It will cost 
monthly though for the bandwidth.

Through communities, local prefs, etc. and a few upstreams, you can shape your

inbound. Noction has a box that does outbound only and they were working on 
inbound, but last I knew hadn't finished it yet.

I'm not sure anyone would offer this given that you should be using 
purpose-built circuits for this. 

I'm not sure it would require much babysitting once it was done, other than the 
reliability of the circuits.

Through communities, local prefs, etc. and a few upstreams, you can shape your 
traffic quite a bit. The InterNAP box is the only one I'm aware of that'll do 
inbound. Noction has a box that does outbound only and they were working on 
inbound, but last I knew hadn't finished it yet.

I have used communities a lot...  The problem is non-standard support and no

Through communities, local prefs, etc. and a few upstreams, you can shape your 
traffic quite a bit. The InterNAP box is the only one I'm aware of that'll do 
inbound. Noction has a box that does outbound only and they were working on 
inbound, but last I knew hadn't finished it yet.

I'm assuming a Mikrotik at a datacenter where you do BGP with a tunnel to the 
destination router's IPs per upstream port. OSPF magic over the different 
tunnels.

I've not seen anyone do this commercially, but I can make this happen for you 
if you like. Let me know if you want to explore this, as I don't have this set 
up just yet as a commercial service. FWIW, I have done this on a couple of

Have to have some kind of datacenter box etc..  i.e. a MT on both ends then 
bonding though tunnels will work, but the bandwidth has to come to a datacenter
