We actually have a new Fiber to the Home deployment that has the ONT use
TFTP to get their config files, similar to a DOCSIS model. If the ONT
doesn't get a config file, no Voice, Video or Data will work. So in our
case, TFTP is now critical.

But, I'll stick with using each failover server separate as the tftp
server and see how it goes, before I make things overly complicated.
