Load balancing and redundancy inbound to the network is not really
possible. They will need to run BGP.
Outbound is easy. Setup two HSRP groups. Have one ether Primary for
one group and Secondary for the other and vice versa. Then point half
the workstations to one virtual address and half to the other.
