Hi All,

 

I am looking to load balanced across 2 ADSL lines either both coming
into the same router or using 2 separate routers, any thoughts would be
much appreciated.

 

So far I have looked at;

 

HSPR;

If I understand HSRP correctly I will have to give out 2 default
gateways which I would not like to do.

 

NAT;

I could have 2 WIC cards and NAT across both the ADSL links, but from
what I have seen the 2nd line would only be used when there are no
available translation paths on the 1st.

 

OER;

>From what I can see this appears to achieve the best load balancing. Has
anyone ever used OER, and if so is there anything I should be looking
out for?

 

TIA

 

Regards

James
