Our Internet perimeter router has two Ethernet connections to two different ISP routers. The routing process is assures with static routes.

How can I configure perimeter router to perform load balancing between the two ISP's connections ? Can anyone send to me a simple example for this ?

If you have VLANs on your network, you could use HSRP (Hot Standby Routing Protocol) and use the two routers as backups to each other.

Send trafiic from some VLANs to RouterA, send the rest of the traffic to RouterB. If either router or path fails, the second router takes the load, and no reconfiguration of the workstation when a path fails.

Do a search on "HSRP" on the knowledgebase site to see if this will be a good thing for you.

Good Luck
