That's not multihoming.
Really? Lets try these and see how you do:
1) One IP connection via a T-1. Second IP connection via GRE tunnel
carried on first.
2) One IP connection via a T-1 that doesn't have transit, only peering
with providers B and C. IP connections via two GRE tunnels to providers
B and C.
3) One IP connection via MPLS over T-1. Second IP connection via
different MPLS virtual circuit over the same T-1.
4) One IP connection via Frame Relay over T-1. Second IP connection via
Frame Relay over the same T-1.
5) One IP connection via a T-1. Second IP connection via a different T-1
that is multiplexed on the same DS3.
6) One IP connection via a T-1. Second IP connection via a different T-1
that is on separate physical pairs, but in the same cable bundle.
