Hi Rubens...

Thanks for the reply... That's pretty well what I'm going to end up
doing on L2.... :)

I don't think there is one. You should use either L2 or L3
load-balancing to achieve this. L2 way is setting
per-vlan-spanning-tree, and making one path active and the other backup
for half of the vlans, and the other way around for the others.
L3 way is CEF loadsharing, 2 routes for each destination.
