... but I have to try :)
In a very basic sense an IP block lives behind an Autonomous System (AS) Number, and you can have mutliple routes to that AS. When a block of IP addresses is allocated to an ISP an AS number is created to allow this to be routed across the Internet.
Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) exists to help figure out routes between different autonomous systems.
Therefore you can have a collection of links for any given AS, and therefore for any given IP address range.
