Verizon has put another good third party DSL supplier out of the DSL business.
Their mindset is to kill the competition and then kill DSL and copper
althogether in FIOS areas.
So am soon losing my static IP and I need to prepare for the change. I
currently have Asterisk running using, besides local extensions, a remote SIP
extension in another state. In the new configuration both Asterisk and the
remote extension will be behind dynamic IP.
I will be running dyndns or equivalent and likely ddclient to update IP's.
Will there be any issues running in this way? Will Asterisk ride through an IP
change without a restart? If there is a definitive wiki topic on this please
pass me the link.
ddclient is configurable to do any restarts or changes that might be necessary
should an IP address change.
I am told that Comcast, which I am hoping to get, has "sticky" dynamic IP
meaning the IP addresses rarely if ever change. If that is the case then this
is pretty much a non issue. I think they use the router mac address to assign
an IP address.
Also the version of Asterisk I am running is old - 1.2.35 - yes I know it's old
but it works and does what I need. Are there differences in versions on how the
above would work?
Thanks, Doug
