asterisk users - Jan 2007 - Asterisk very slow when internet down

Has anyone seen this issue with asterisk running like a dog when the
internet is down ?  Internal calls, incoming ISDN calls etc all seem to be
affected.  There is a local DNS server that is always available so I?m not
sure why asterisk is so unresponsive.

 

I?ve seen this on two different systems, and on 1 of them I commented out my
SIP providers in sip.conf and it ran ok again.

 

Thanks

Peter.

Check that it's not doing SRV request in sip.conf

How fast does the DNS server respond to queries made by the asterisk
box? Perhaps set up a trace somewhere to discover what queries are
being made and what/when the responses come back.

Cheers,

Sadly, people have reported this fairly regularly.

An option is to hard-code the server and IP address in your hosts file,
but this can be even worse when the provider changes the IP address of
the server...
