WorldCom) using their hardware/software device and no BGP needed!

Subject: BGP4 and Multiple Providers [7:55918]
We are bringing in a second DS3 line into our Cisco 7206 v12
router and was
hoping for some general advise.
Our current provider is a 9mbps DS3 from Genuity. We are
bringing in a
seconds DS3 from PAJO at 6mbps for redundancy and to bring
the usage down on
the Genuity line.
My question is what commands do I need to look into when I
have the BGP4
setup on the router in order to handle the flow of traffic
properly?
90% of our traffic is OUTBOUND (up to the internet) and we
need to balance
this traffic between the 9mbps and 6mbps connections. From
what I am told
this won't be an automatic process but something I will have
to tweak on
occation depending on if traffic demands change between the
connections.
How am I best going to control this outbound flow of
traffic? My idea was
that when one connection is using a high % I can manually
modify a metric of
some sort to make the router believe that that connection is
not as
preferred as it once was and start sending a little of the
traffic over the
other connection instead. Am I being realistic here?
