load balancing adsl and sdsl

Hi all,

I have just been asked to setup load balancing over one sdsl circuit and one adsl circuit on a 1721 router.

Is this possible ??

Thanks

Of course.

All you need to do is to write your own router code and make one to do what you want. This will handle the traffic out to the Internet (assuming that is indeed what you are connected to).

Then you can buy the ISP(s) and install you own routers in the data centre so that you have full control of the inbound traffic too.

No problem at all.

## On the other hand ##

There are various load balancnig possibilities however good, robust, networking practice, does not really support load balancing, It is possible in many special cases.

If you can supply further detail of your requirement then perhaps someone can respond more usefully.

The router is connected to the internet by two wic's one is a sdsl(1mb) and one adsl(3.5mb). All the ip address are outside addresses.

Hi, You can do load-balancing in outbound, for example using two identical routes like this:

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ADSLINERFACE ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 SDSLINTERFACE

but this is good if you have two links with the same speed.

So, you can move more traffic in one side using for example policy routing or, if you use NAT, access-lists in the pools.

For inbound traffic you can only distribuite public ip addresses for traffic-type
