Unframed 2Mb bundling - Possible?

[lwahlers]

Using 7206 routers and multiple 2 Meg lines (2x or 3x) is it possible to bundle them together to form a 4 Meg or 6 Meg pipe?

I have done Bundling on a Cat 5500 switch with ether ports (100M), so I was wondering if it was possible to do the same on 2 Meg lines.

If 'yes', it would solve some of our BGP Headaches.

Thanks

Yes you can do this with Multilink PPP (MLP).

See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1831/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00800d9845.html#19282

If your BGP headaches concern balancing the load, have you tried setting up a single BGP session between the two routers loopback interfaces, and using a loadbalancing IGP (EIGRP, OSPF, ...) to route (loadbalanced) between the loopbacks?
