Yes that's exactly what I'm trying to do. The problem is some people will
only try one IP address.

That was actually plan A. I already added a property in sip_profile called
failover_redirect, which specifies another server to try if FS can't
allocate any more sessions (e.g. too busy, paused, shutdown asap, etc.),
by sending back a SIP 302 Moved Temporarily response, instead of 503 Max
Calls In Progress.
Turns out not all my endpoints support it :(
I considered REFER too but there seems to be even less support for that.
If I can't get the socket-sharing upgrade working then I will fall back to
this - and peers which don't support the 302 response (or more likely,
don't authorise it) will just get no service during the upgrade.
