[nsp] Tri-homed with HSRP

[Jack.W.Parks at alltel.com]

Play with local pref on your ibgp peering statements based on which set
of routes you receive from each ISP.  You will have a lot of redirected
packets (because of HSRP) to the second Internet router, due to your
network design.

This is from the BGP Case Study Guide on Cisco's Web site.

Subject: [nsp] Tri-homed with HSRP


We are tri-homed using two 7206VXR's. RTR1 is our HSRP master and hosts
a link to ISP1. RTR2 is our HSRP backup and hosts links to ISP2 and
ISP3. We are getting some performance issues because traffic entering
via ISP2 or ISP3 is returning via ISP1 due to BGP metrics being equal
and RTR1 being the default gateway. Is there anyone way to force traffic
out its origin link when BGP metrics are equal?

TIA for any advice.
