[VoiceOps] TA900 DNS problems

There is versions  in the A1 or A2 train (I want to say it's A2.02 and below, but don't know offhand) that would have one failed call per DNS TTL. This does not exist in recent versions and had to do with the internal DNS cache not handling expired entries properly.

Are you using DNS SRV? Can you sniff DNS traffic at your servers? What's the TTL? Is it lower than your registration interval?

We use it just like this and don't have any trouble like this, but we also don't use registration.

After several hours about 60% of the TA900s required a reboot to resolve the hostname to the new IP and the other 40% won’t do it no matter how many times your reboot.  The only fix is to change everything back to IP based using the new IPs. The oldest firmware we are running is T900G2A-A4-02-00-E.biz upto the most recent.
