Appreciate if you can provide the best configuration guide to achieve load balancing among ISP 1 and ISP 2  between AS 65001 and 65050 according to the attached network diagram.

Thanks

The "best" load balancing might be achieved by something like OER/PfR, if supported on your equipment.

If not, assuming links are equal, routing equally between the two ASs is probably next best option.  (NB: this will require setting max path to 2 and using the hidden command bgp bestpath as-path multipath-relax.)

In addition to Joseph's suggestion, you can also use bgp dmzlink-bw if your ISP supports it ;-)

Hello Ravindu,

Have a look on the below link for BGP case studies for outbound and inbound load balancing.

Hope it Helps..
