RE: Redundancy with two ISPs by configuring BGP

Just put two addresses on every server on the inside. Nat the outside
address to the inside address for that particular connection. Use PBR to
make sure return traffic uses the correct interface. For redundancy purposes
put a DNS server behind each connection, and only advertise services
available via that connection out each. Use a low DNS TTL for services that
are typically persistent. Mail the MX records will handle this naturally,
DNS will handle this naturally, a web server will need the DNS cache on the
client side to time out. For egress traffic from your own clients, use GLBP
to load balance the two connections.
