Good point, I don't think that scenario is even possible in H.323, You 
cannot register 2 entities with the same alias, the server should reject 
the second registration, even if 2 servers where used, the routing policy 
should only return 1 address to EP1 to call.. An EP may use 2 different IP 
addresses but only 1 IP address is used at a time to attempt the connection.
