Hmm, load-balancing and multipath is not implemented. The best thing you can do
with BIRD is to have asymetric routing (one link preferred for upstream and
the other for downstream), or prefix based load-balancing (some prefixes
are preferred over one link and other prefixes are preferred over the other
link).
