[asterisk-users] Multiple route failover zaps registration

[Sammy Govind]

Hi,
I'm only going to rephrase what James said, shorten the registration
expiration timer and retry timers. That way phones will retry registrations
lets say after 1 min so after 1 min all phones will failover to the
secondary SRV record.

Regards,
Sammy
