[Asterisk-Users] How to monitor externip automatically?
Hello list, I am behind a NAT router and therefore need to have externip= in sip.conf. Whenever the isp resets its DHCP server, I have to change the setting in order to make Asterisk work. Is there a way to make Asterisk get the external ip automatically in case I am able to do it from wherever I am? Thor Atle Rustad

[Asterisk-Users] How to monitor externip automatically?
Have you considered one of the dynamic DNS services, (e.g. http://www.dyndns.org/services/dyndns/)? Looking through the Wiki it seems that there is no requirement to use an actual IP address for externip=, in fact I found one posting that explicitly discouraged their use.
