Hi,
 
Consider 2 x edge routers connecting to same ISP. 
Each router taking full BGP routes with AS prepends on the HSRP standby box so traffic in/out only over the primary box. Also has static default route to ISP neighbour.
Each of these routers share the same L2 brodcast domain on a switched network internally. 
 
L2 domain is being upgrade with 6500's, VLAN's, HSRP, VACL's etc. 
Routed /32's will connect each of the 2 x 6500's to each of the edge routers.
 
Is it best to keep things static, and for example, define weighted static default routes on the 6500's to the primary/secondary boxes? Or is dynamic the way to go?
 
Any thoughts appreciated.
 
Mark
