Is there any cisco product/solution capable to do ISP links load balance without utilization of BGP?

Thanks

Hi

Can you revert back on the IP Address Space being used in both Internet router 1 and Internet router 2 ?

Its preferred to run BGP with the SP so that the redundancy can be taken care automatically.

Also due to some internal routing policies SPs may not entertain running redundancy with static routes..

Hi

Thanks for your response!

In fact, the client don't want use BGP in the network and I'm looking for another solution with automatic redundancy.

What do you think in using OER in the edge routers with the master controller in the edge router 1? In this case, the firewall will be in failover mode.

Is there another solution?

Hi,

Radware is providing the equipment for load-balancing internet lines from different SP.

You can use the device "Radware: link-proof"

Cisco doesn't have similar equipment.

Wouldn't OER work?

No BGP is okay. Use static for both SP's ?

Hi,

If you are running sensitive applicaion U can use Linkproof from RADWare or use BIGIP Link Controller. Both these products do fantastic traffic shapping and bandwidth management and are easy to manage.
