       Hi, all. I have a scenario where I have a lan whose deafult
   gateway is a PIX to get to the net. (Actually 2 running failover). The
   PIX outside then defaults to one internet router.
       I'm adding a second router to the same ISP and want to load
   balance out to the net from the PIX. I can't think of a way to do this
   directly from the PIX (my reading says PIX doesn't support dynamic
   routing or dual defaults, but hopefully I read wrong!) without putting
   a third router in between the pix and the 2 ISP routers and put 2
   defaults in that router or run a routing protocol bewteen the 2 isp
   routers and the third router and advertise deafults from the 2 isp
   routers.
       First, does anyone from their experience know of a way to do this
   without the third router?
       If not, if I use dual static defaults, if one of the routers goes
   down, the route will still be in there so I'm thinking if I have to go
   with the third router having it receive dynamic defaults fron the ISP
   routers is best.
        Thanks!
