Try BGP session through PIX-es between the the ISP routers and the internal router.

I thought about that tool. However PIX will not forward any default learned from outside interface to inside. If PIX can announce conditional default to internal network, my problem would be solved. e.g. If PIX learns default from ISP nodes, then and then it will announce default to internal network otherwise would not.
I already have started on TCL script as a last resort but was curious if can be done without TCL.
Thanks,
Sam
