Another option is to create a shellscript that writes a
tempfile with the current ip. Next time it's run it will
compare the current ip with the recorded ip.
If they are the same, terminate.
If they are not, run an IAX2 reload.
That way you will only reload when needed.

I remember there are tools that allow you to run scripts on
ip address change, but cant find them in my 1 minute search.
