2600 w/ 2 WIC-1DSU-T1, TWO ptp T1s

[v.lui]

I have two 2600 routers, each with TWO WIC-1DSU-T1 modules and a Fast Ethernet card. I am trying to set up two parallel p2p T1s over these two routers. Other than the configurations described earlier, how do I do load balancing, and to set it up such that it is a virtual 3Mbps line? MLPPP doesn't work on this, does it?

Then i also need to pass DHCP (separate server) and public IP addresses? Can someone direct me to any samples for this?

any help would be great, thanks very much,

Vincent

Yes, you can set up MLPPP on your T-1s. Or you can just leave everything at default, define your static and/or default routes out both interfaces, and the router will do "per-destination" load balancing for you.

As for the other stuff, go to CCO and search on the following:

helper address (for DHCP issue)

port address translation (for public ip issue)

network address translation (for public ip issue)

Thanks. I am less than a beginner to all this. I have set each pair of my T1's CSU/DSU the appropriate encap (HDLC), framing (ESF), speed (all, 64kbps), linecode(B8ZS). I am only trying to get a signal between the two routers first, but still having trouble.

I have been looking at some samples on defining static routes, but not sure what i am doing. Can I not have more than one static route? I need one for each pair of DSU/CSU? In router 1:

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 serial0/0 (router 1)

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 (router 2, serial 0/0)

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 serial0/1 (router 1)

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.4 (router 2, serial 0/0)

and I have to do the reverse of this on router 2? And this should by default acchieve load-balancing?

Does RIP come into play here?

thanks again.
