[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk stops responding when internet is down

Asterisk is sensitive when it comes to DNS lookups. If the DNS server
configured on your Asterisk server is not reachable, Asterisk may block
while waiting for a result. This can cause chan_sip to hang and not allow
phones to register, or calls to be placed. One solution is to run a DNS
server on the same machine, and cache results or use IP addresses instead of
hostnames.
