My freeBSD 4.2 box is connected to two ISP providers with two NICs.  The
setup is similar to this:

                 |--------------- www.xxx.yyy.zzz
                 |
         |---------|
     ----| FreeBSD |
         |  4.2R   |
         |---------|
                 |
                 |---------------- aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd

After researching a bit, I think it is possible to use netgraph's
ng_one2many to aggregate/combine the two physical interfaces to form a
virtual interface for round robin load balancing.

Is there anyone successfully tried this?  What do I need to compile in the
kernel?  I would appreciate it if someone could contribute a sample
configuration or guide.

Thanks!

best wishes,
Wai Chan
