With proliferation of high speed circuits and continuing trend of lower
cost of bandwidth, PPLB is becoming more obsolete for many people that
implemented it in the past.  What is becoming more common is non-PPLB
based setup, such as flow or destination based load balancing, et al
to group high capacity circuits (i.e. when gig-e's aren't enough and
10GbE is too much of a capex for an immediate upgrade).
