Not sure about load balancing, as for policy routing, thats easy. We do
that with a bsd box.
I would assume all the routers, imagestream, MT, Star, Cisco, etc etc.
can handle various wans with policy routing. We just haven't done our

Not sure which connectors you are using, but those can be expensive as

We have found $60 per strand per side termination to be market rate.
However, we use Corning's no polish system, and it takes 15 minutes per
