add two ip`s for one host (that constists of two real hosts) :

raq1.domain.tld 	IN	A	111.111.111.111
raq2.domain.tld		IN	A	222.222.222.222

i don`t know if the gui lets you do this.

however, do not expect anything that  you can call high availabilty, if
you want to to this. if one crashes, for every second request,  the dns
leads you to the dead one.
