We currently have three BGP and MBGP peering sessions, one of which is
an Internet2 peer. Our primary peering session (peer A) is a 100 Mbps
connection. Our secondary connection (peer B) also is a 100 Mbps
connection rate-limited to 19 Mbps (for financial reason). The

in the near future).
I expect your answer will be in removing any rate limiting
configuration, and setting up some local-prefs on AS's to balance
traffic. Then your expensive 2nd link will take load (and incur
cost) upon failure of link 1.
We currently have local prefs in place. They work fine, but we

The remote end is some 14ms away across a third party MPLS network.
Obviously we need to shape at the remote end, but the current behaviour

experience doesn't lock out
