[OpenSIPS-Users] dns srv question

[Miha]

Hi,

opensips in my case does not use dns srv domin. I am using dns srv 
domain just for UAC's, for geo redundancy. As some phones does not 
support dns srv (small amount) it is easier (for me) to use the same 
domain for registration's. I have tftp server for all configration and 
it is easy and nicers that registrar in all config is the same. That is 
why I would like to define same A record as is dns srv domain.

So, I will have two A record and if I understand you right, Opensips 
will sometimes bind to one and sometimes to another record? Could be 
this causing any problems?

tnx
miha
