I currently have a T1 for Internet connected to a 2503 which is in turn connected to a Pix 515e, I would like to add a second T1 for the Internet (testing a different vendor) and would like to add it to the router as well so that I don't have to invest in a second Pix.
Is the 2500 capable of supporting load balancing / fault tolerance so that I can combine both T1's into one larger pipe? If not, what router would be recommended?
Finally, can I get some help configuring this, I have the existing T1 on Ser0 and would be adding the second on Ser1, since the T1s are from different providers there are different IP ranges for each, and different subnet masks. I want to make sure that the users can benefit from the added bandwidth but also want to make sure that if one T1 goes down that our users can keep on surfing...
Thanks.
