Hi

I've a Digi SYNC/570i with two V.35 (up to 2M) interfaces on it.
Currently I'm using only one V.35 with a 256k leased-line (copper)
to a cisco router on the other side.

I would like to add a second 256k leased-line to the same cisco
router and do loadsharing on this links. Using a 512k is no option
because the maximum line speed I can get is 256k.

Is a special loadsharing module required for this (like in linux) or
can I do that with gated and OSPF loadsharing?

Thanks for help.
