This is a similar question to the BGP load balancing discussion that's been
going on here.
We have two routers connected to two ISPs. Each router's pulling a full
route table from its ISP.
The routers are connected to each other via a switch, and they are both in
the same AS (our own registered ASN). They're
sharing their routes with each other.
We're using HSRP and would like to load balance a little better. Currently
about 75% of the traffic goes out the active HSRP router's ISP.
Looking at the BGP table, the paths from each ISP are mostly equal length.
But the active HSRP router chooses its own internally originated
route over its neighbor's routes.
What would be a good way to make the standby HSRP router's BGP routes look
more desireable? Implement AS-path padding on the active router's incoming
BGP routes?
Thanks for any suggestions.
