I'm pretty sure the OS is checking /etc/hosts and * looks up the address every time it registers -- at least I didn't have to reload it when I changed the IP in /etc/hosts. I'm not sure about the performance level checker, but why not allow to specify alternate servers? If registration at the preferred server fails, try the next best one. Asterisk already has a timeout after which it considers a host unreachable, so this should be fairly easy to do. End after a (pre)specified recovery time let it retry the preferred server. I wonder where you would specify the alternate hosts though... DNS seems most logical to me, but does say Broadvoice provide round robin lookups for sip.broadvoice.com? I don't think so. --Luki _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
