Dear All,

But i want to use both link after some interval of time like 30 min. ISP 1 link is used and after 30 min ISP 2 Link will be used
is there any configuration on cisco that i can configure like this

Hi
I would like to understand the question, do you want to enable the second link after 30min it is Up to have both links at the same time?
Is there any reason to have down one of them?

i would like have both links up. But after 30 min ISP 2 link will be used and after another 30 min ISP 1 link is used for accessing the internet (all traffic will be auto shifted through ISP 2)
But i would not like to do it with the Time based ACL as if either ISP is down users are not able to access internet
The reason behind it i have to show the usage of both links as ISP 2 link is backup link

I understand, I think the best way to implement it is using EEM script + Cron, the script must be adjusted to your requirements, I recommend first test it during a maintenance windows in order to verify the behavior of the traffic.

As Julio has suggested, a reoccurring EEM script could "toggle" between your ports.
However, if your device supports PfR, you could use both links and load them in a 5:1 ratio, i.e. the same as their bandwidths.
