BGP/Multihoming

Thu Nov 6 03:48:55 UTC 1997

The diagram below describes our current set-up:

* We have two default routes via BGP with MCI (L1 and L2) for outgoing
  traffic.
* The two MCI links are configured to load share incoming traffic thru the
  use of MEDs.

Questions:

1.  How can I use the third link for default routes?  Is static routing
    the only solution?

2.  Is it possible to load-share outgoing traffic between two different
    ASN's?  How?

3.  How can I unclude the third link for load-sharing incoming traffic?

Please reply privately.

Thanks,
