What we do is per-packet or per-destination load-balancing with CEF over multiple T1's. It works pretty well. Just have two default routes on the customer equipment, cef turned on on the interfaces, and your preferred method of balancincing in the interfaces. On the ISP side, they do the same wit

Since you have the routers in different AS's, they are using eBGP instead of iBGP. If the peer addresses aren't on a directly connected network, you need the following command on both routers: neighbor x.x.x.x ebgp-multihop On 14-Sep-2000, Hubert Pun wrote: > Hi, > > I am using the two loopbac
