> When there are multiple IP addresses in DNS for a given host, chan_sip only seems to try one of them, repeatedly. It doesn't fall back to the others.
> This is especially noticeable when RFC3484 puts an IPv6 address top in the list but the server doesn't respond on that address (which is a bug, but happens).
> But it's true even for purely Legacy IP setups; if there are multiple servers listed in round-robin, it should try them all before failing.
> But it doesn't. It just tries the *same* host again:
> [Aug 27 10:44:43] NOTICE[16688]: chan_sip.c:12654 sip_reg_timeout:    -- Registration for '01799xxxxxx at c.speechless.aaisp.net.uk' timed out, trying again (Attempt #1782)
> Really destroying SIP dialog '12474a89554cf44a1c33b0cf07c70413@[2001:8b0:10b:1:240:f4ff:fe28:959d]' Method: REGISTER
> Retransmitting #1 (no NAT) to [2001:8b0:0:30:225:90ff:fe05:11ac]:5060:
> (This is for registration; presumably the same problem exists elsewhere.)
