Hmm,
But I believe the original question is to load-balance to two different
AS's... which is not possible right now. ( I can't have 701 and 1239 hooked
to my router and load balance to some AS they are both connected to )
It would be great to have this in practice. But BGP is really set on making
one single best choice for the route.
As well, wouldn't CEF be responsible for the per-packet balancing, not BGP
per se? I am not sure of that, but I would think that the switching engine
would be more in charge than the routing protocol.

Li,
Yes you can do this. In order to do this issue the
"maximum-paths" command under the BGP process. Note that the best path
selection must match for all the attributes up to the IGP metric.
