      Hello:

      Anybody knows if it's possible to do load balancinf if I got all the WAN routers in the same range?? This is my scenario:

      LAN: 192.169.0.1/24
      WAN: 172.16.170.1/24 GW:172.16.170.3

      And also i got 5 routers with the ips: 172.16.170.2,172.16.170.4,172.16.170.5,172.16.170.6,172.16.170.7. So it's possible to make load balancing? or i need to define 5 networks each one for each router?

        Each WAN needs to be a seperate Interface or the Natting won't work correctly. Also you would not be able to use policybasedrouting for sites that don't work with loadbalancing for example. If you have a vlan capable switch you can make this work with one physical interface and several vlan interfaces.
