Roland Dobbins asked in response to my question here:

Can I do what I need to do with some sort of BGP multipath load balancing, but 
with keeping my traffic engineering objectives intact?

Why are you going for failover instead of active/active? With a failover scenario, X% of your capacity is going unused . . .

Also, why multihome into the same upstream transit provider? A higher degree of resiliency is achieved by multihoming with multiple transit providers.


Hi, Roland,

It is a bit involved, but both of my paths up to router A and router B for this particular ISP are being shared with other customers. So I am trying to do some traffic engineering and shaping so that I do not interfere with what the other customers are doing on these shared pipes.

As I mentioned earlier, I do have multiple providers, but I am mainly trying to solve the forwarding problem for my main provider where I am multi-homed to meet my traffic engineering requirements.
