I configured the router with 3 i/p whose bandwidth are 5:5 each, and i'm getting a single output. My doubt is whether i getting a output of 5:5 bandwith or a sum of these 3 ip's bandwidth i.e 15 Mbp's output?? please calrify my doubt guyzzzz :::::

You are not going to get 15 megs aggregate when you have 3 5 meg links from 3 different providers.

At this point, I'm loathe to give anymore advice, as I don't know what your design goals are, nor do I know your topology, so randomly throwing out ideas will, I feel, server to hinder, and not help.

How many IP addresses are using in providing external services? I really don't think we need to be talking about BGP here as I really don't think you qualify for a direct allocation from an RIR. Also, if you are willing to spend at least $10K on load balancers we can throw that solution out the window as well. The very best you are going to do is provide 3 individual 5 meg links to be randomly utilized for outbound traffic, and with a very maximum very best case scenario of 5mbps throughput for a single TCP stream. Given the length of this thread I think you would be best served picking a link as primary and using another as failover. You are talking about introducing complexity that your organization is probably not ready to deal with.

hi Forsaken as per quest ,we are having 3 different ip's from 3 different isp vendors and we configured our router with this 3 isp and we introducing route map technique to allocate this connection b/w our 150 pc's ...and our router is having 2 gigabye and 2 fast ethernet port.we are giving 3 isp vendor in 2 fast ethernet port and get our o/p i.e load balanced one from gigabyte port and given it to our switch which distribute it to all our host i.e pc's....
