Sorta OT: More than T1, less than T3...

2001-01-17 Thread Craig Columbus
Ok..given a situation where you need more than T1 Internet connectivity (say 10Mb), but can't spring for a T3, how do you resolve the issue? Do you buy multiple T1's and multiplex them? If so, I assume that this requires cooperation with the ISP to de-mux on their site. What Cisco equipment

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

Thanks guys for all the good comments. I'm going to look into the standard mux/imux stuff, but the ATM IMA solution sounds interesting. How many out there have implemented this? Is it reliable? (ATM has been a bit flaky for me in the past.) How does the cost per ATM line compare to standa
