Do you have a router with two ethernet ports? Are both ISP connections coming in to the router via ethernet?

u can use IP SLA/ECHO to achive this.<br />
<br />
in this case u can ping both isps every 10 to 15 sec if there is no replay it will fail over to 2nd isp. this also require 2 default routes, one with higher metric.<br />

trying to connect Cisco Router to two ISPs, would like to use both ISPs simultaneously, but would settle for fail-over mode only (use larger bandwidth connection, fail-over to smaller one in event of outage), and want to do this without BGP, any suggestions ? two static default routes, one with higher Admin Dist maybe ? dunno, LOL, thanx ;-)

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
