ways of load balancing to WAN

carl_townshend · ‎05-15-2009

Hi all, if I wanted to load balance traffic out of my wan using 2 routers, how would this be done, I know that they routing protocol will load balance but how would I send the traffic to the 2 routers,

are the 2 options, 2 static equal cost routes, and glbp?

cheers

Equal path routing and GLBP would both achieve what you want.

Etherchannel is also an option.

Maybe I'm reading to much into the question but curious if you have 2 WAN circuits terminating on 2 individual routers or is the topology using 2 routers connected to a Single Wan Router?
