Actually this is pretty easy to do if you are not the primary domain
controller for your address space. Your primary domain controller
(usually for ISP) can redirect your inbound traffic to another location by
simply changing your addresses in their DNS. It does however, take some
time for all the domain servers on the Internet to get this update.
Inbound mail is not a problem, it can be handled by an MX record, inbound
FTPs and Web sites are another issue. Make sure you hot site has some
reserve addresses that you will be able to use.
