Dave & itojun, One area that could be added to the ANYCAST discussion is the point that the router could be configured to listen for these addresses & tunnel to a specific server. This would have the advantage of predictablility for diagnostics as well as per-subnet load distribution, with the down side being lowered robustness to server outages. In effect using the DHCP-proxy model at the IP layer.
