I am building redundancy within that setup. I mean it will be software
based BGP so if hardware if fried up, it will break BGP session and pull
off routes anyway and for cases like DNS server (software) failure, I will
monitor it via simple bash script which can turn bgp daemon down. So once
it is off, routing tables should take it to different node.

i have a tee shirt which says

   All Devices Break
   Two Devices Will Break at Once
   Global BGP Never Converges
