Broadcast request?

I plan to write my own type of torrent. I ran into a problem: if the connection to the server is lost (blocking, etc.), how can a new server be put into use and inform clients about the new server without prescribing backup servers in the program, etc.
I only thought of the fact that the server sends millions of requests on the network and the clients accept them and connect to the new server.

Broadcast will not be sent outside the local network.
