Bond 2 T-1's from 2 different providers?

[Gerard Roy]

I know I can bond 2 p2p T-1's with mppp from the same provider. Is it possible to do it with 2 different providers? I want to take advantage of the 3 megs it will offer but also have the redundancy.

Any config examples?

Thanks,

Jerry

Hi

You can bundle the T1s from different service providers under one multilink bundle. There wont be any issues related to the configurations as such, but if one of the links goes down then you might experience intermittent packet drops / application performance issues etc.,coz one of the physical link in the logical bundle will be down.
