You can do round robin DNS. This however isn't the best way if you ask
me, but it works somewhat. the main disadvantage with this method is not
knowing the state of the server before you send calls through to the IP
address that the DNS resolves to (i.e. it merely rotates IPs for a given
Domain Name).

Also, the return signalling path may not be the same as the forward path if
the rotation has gone through to the next cycle, if you know what I mean,
and you may have to do something with record route.

You can also look into using DNS SRV, but I have yet to see a practical
implementation of this.

Not sure but there may be hardware solutions out there (e.g. a CISCO switch
or something).
