Practically, the servers in a pool is concentrated, not distributed,
which means all the members shares external connectivity.

Or, if you are talking about servers distributed over multiple
sites, it is complex not because of M6 but because of involving
multiple sites.

Let's make a site or something members of which shares fate of
connectivity multihomed.
