Another option is to place several Traffic Server boxes behind a VIP, i.e. a router or load balancer that owns a common IP and distributes connections to whichever Traffic Server box is alive. A router capable of basic ECMP routing can mostly do this. Or a dedicated state-aware load balancer can detect that a Traffic Server box has gone done and send new connections to other servers.
