Hi folks

I ran in a interesting issue today and whant ask you which is
the better solution.

Heres the scenarion.

cat5k - | _
   _ |---|_|-----
  |_| - | R1 Internet Backbone
        | _
        |---|_|-----
             R2

Lets say my cat must be reachable via the ethernet link, R1 and R2s links
pointing to the BB. For connectivity i have to put 2 static default routes
on the cat pointing to the ethernet ports to make sure if one port goes down
the cat is still reachable. There is a working solution also with HSRP. My
question now which solution scales more ?

any comments are welcome....

regards
Louis
