Cisco 887VA and Load Balancing

[momentousltd]

Hello.

I want to use two adsl lines on 887VA, one directly to dsl interface and the second on lan1 behind my provider's modem (bridge mode) and load balance them.

Is this possible with 887VA router?

Thanks.

Hi

yes just use 2 equal default routes , you can also manipulate it a bit by using cef by altering its interface load sahgre --ip load sharing per-packet

example

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.1

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.1.1.2

Have a look at this for cef and defaults

Thank you Mark. I will try it. Do you know if I can do the same with the older 877W router ?
