We do, albeit not officially.

We manually grab the DVD ISOs from another mirror that has them (thanks
AARnet) when a new release is available.

Yes.

The IP address that our machine pulls from is 117.55.229.1.
The IP address of our mirror is 117.55.229.2.

While in the current setup we can easily change the rsync command to pull
using 117.55.229.2 (it's the same machine), we're looking at putting the
mirrors in a HA configuration behind a pair of load balancers.

In this case the mirror IP would be a VIP on the load balancer, and the
machine pulling the content would be on a different IP.
