In my last email, I said, "it will be considered to be dead, and the known
route to the IP address through that peer will be withdrawn."
I should clarify that with BGP, once a route is withdrawn, the next best
path to the destination is selected. In our scenario, there's another
known path to the destination -- through the secondary director -- and so
that path will be the next chosen path.

True. But, if you only rewrite the MAC address -- which you could get
away with -- this should end up being not much more expensive than the
current DR method.
