What would I need to do to configure two T1's that would be bonded from the ISP? I know how to configure a T1 interface. What is an example of how the router would know to send it out either/simultaneous links?

Is it like the MLPP where you put a redundant route with the same value and it then routes each?

Any ideas are apreciated....
 
I found my answer. I wanted to give it back to the tec-tips world as they have been very helpful in times past.

What I was trying to accomplish is often referred to as MFR Multilink Frame Relay.

The commands are easy.

interface MFR0
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay IETF
frame-relay lmi-type ansi
!
interface MFR0.1 point-to-point
ip address 122.72.216.2 255.255.255.252
frame-relay interface-dlci 100

Then configure your serial interfaces:

interface Serial0/2/0:1
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay MFR0
no arp frame-relay
!
interface Serial0/2/1:1
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay MFR0
no arp frame-relay

Of course depending on the wic cards you are using you would also need to configure your timselots etc.
