Hi All,

I have following scenario I would like to try a load balancing. I have two
cisco 877 connected to Internet via ADSL. And their LAN interface (vlan1) is
on two different subnets (192.168.2.0/ 192.168.3.0). Both of these routers
vlan1 connected to a switch as well as client pc's.

So what's the best way to configure load balancing on these 2 routers?. Is
it using a bridge interface? or should I use both routers in same
subnet?.If I use both routers in the same subnet how do I achieve load
balancing?.

And one of the routers needs to run the dhcp server for clients connected
via vlan1 (192.168.3.0).

What's the best scenario to achieve load balancing on this situation?. Refer
to following diagram .
