John-

Thanks for the valuable input.

Can you tell how do i go ahead for configuring BGP loadbalancing in the
below scenario:-

Internal Network--------->> Internet Router A ------------>>ISP A
 (10.1.1.0/24/ Internet Router B-------------->>ISP B
192.168.1.1.0/24)
I want my 10.1.1.0 subnet to pass through only ISP A & 192.168.1.0 subnet to
pass through ISP B.

But If one ISP goes down traffic should be diverted to other traffic with
out diversion.

Also one major reason why i am looking for Loadbalancing with Service
provider is
for example latency towards ISP A is very high , then let me know what needs
to be done form my end on the Internet Routers. IS there any way we can
achieve this with out any changes on BGP.

Any scenario with commands would help me a lot

Cheers!
