Jay, this is a great video! It's very straighforward and informative. Im also impressed you were able to type all that so quickly without typos

I was 100% against this new nat configuration until I watched this video. Awesome video that you made! Clear and easy to understand. Same as Hdashnau, I'm surprised that you didn't have a single typo throughout the video!!!

This was very nice video introduction, thanks.

I need to have a Dual ISP on the ASA and I want to route traffic business relate to T1 base on destination address, the rest of destinations ip will be route to the second ISP DSL connection. I don't want load balancing but route traffic base con destination. Any help will be excellent.

thanks.

How can I do this configuration on 8.3 ????

nat (inside) 1 0 0
global (ISP1) 1 interface
global (ISP2) 1 interface
route ISP1 128.0.0.0 128.0.0.0 1.1.1.2 
route ISP2 0.0.0.0 128.0.0.0 2.2.2.2
The first creates a default route that routes addresses with the first  bit of 1 to 1.1.1.2 of ISP1.
The second creates a default route that routes addresses with the first bit of 0 to 2.2.2.2 of ISP2.
