We went through this same thing several years back, BGP is a large
hassle that is really not necessary these days, you can get devices made
by several vendors that handle this type of high availability / load
balancing. Radware's LinkProof, F5's Big IP are a couple, and there are
many more. No need for ASN's no need for a full /24 network, it all
works via DNS.
As long as you ignore:
- DNS Caching (frequently requiring a client restart - yes, those clients
are broken - no, we can't make users fix them).
- Existing connections will be dropped
...
Sure. But be _very_ sure you understand what the costs are if you avoid the
real BGP solution.
