Hi All,

When we loose Internet access (DNS) Asterisk basically halts until Internet comes up even for internal registrations and calls. We are even running a caching DNS server on the Asterisk box but this does not seem to help. Any suggestions?

We just went through the same problem. You need both a caching dns server, and, define your asterisk system in /etc/hosts so he knows who he is.

I've tested this several times as we use a laptop to demo asterisk and several of these demo's don't have any internet access. (And, you're right, asterisk does not process any calls.) With dns caching and the /etc/hosts definition in place, it now works everywhere.
