Currently, static routes are used between A and B/C (C doesn't exist yet)

Do you use any routing protocol between A, B, & C??

Most of the routing protocols can be set up to load balance across multiple
different routs to the same network if the metrics are the same.  E/IGRP can
load balance even if the metrics are not the same.

Note - A is probably set for fast-switching to B & C since it is on a LAN
interface.  When you are fast-switching the router will only load balance on
a per-destination basis.  If you want it to load balance on a per-packet
basis you have to turn off fast switching by turning off route cacheing.

Hope that helps,
Mike
