Hi Aaron,
It would be nice if you could provide more information about your
topology. But from what i gather, in your AS, you have 2 border
routers connected to 2 different ISPs and you'd like to load balance
inbound and outbound traffic.
I've thought about the scenario and i personally don't think it would
be possible to load balance outgoing traffic via bgp through any
manipulation of attributes as bgp always installs only one best route
to the ip routing table. Also, load balancing of inbound traffic from
two different ISPs in a real world implementation seems impossible as
both ISPs would be separated by multiple Autonomous Systems.
If you have a solution to implementing such a scenario, i would
appreciate if you shared such information. I'm also studying for my
ccie lab and my opinion might not be the correct one. Thanks.
