Load Balancing T1's

RouterOS General
1

Is it now possible with 2.9rc to load balance T1 circuits? I heard 2.9 now had this feature. We currently use a rented Cisco router from AT&T to do this. Would like to use our Cyclades T1 cards again.

AT&T uses CEF for load balancing.

Is anyone doing this with 2.9? Does it work ok? It does do per packet and not just per connection load balancing now, right?

Looks like the best way in 2.9 to use load balancing is through bonding.

Then you need mikrotik boxes on both sides of the link.
