Tony,
IRLP will be no problem, all we need to know is when a new IP is available and working.
There is no reason you couldn’t run with both the old and new IP simultaneously for a
short time. Folks will connect to whatever the database says is the IP. Worst case it
should take only a few hours for the new IP to circulate through the IRLP network.
That may work in the case of a simple, standard IRLP reflector running
sfreflect, it's a lot more complex with mine, because of the specific IP
bindings, hence the need of coordination. Every tbd or tlb instance I
run has a SFBind2IP set to the reflector's IP. I started doing that
when I had address selection issues, which caused the wrong IP to be
used from reflector to client. And I may have had port conflicts
without specific bindings as well in the past. I haven't audited the
system for those conflicts lately, as there has been no need.
