Address pools can be used in combination with the route-to filter option to 
load balance two or more Internet connections when a proper multi-path 
routing protocol (like BGP4) is unavailable. By using route-to with a 
round-robin address pool, outbound connections can be evenly distributed 
among multiple outbound paths
