{{#hierarchy-top:}} The following features are new or changed in Janus TCP/IP Base.

DNS Retries

Prior to Sirmods Version 7.8, the JANUS NAMESERVER command had no facility to call for a retry of a DNS UDP packet for which no response is received. This meant that if Janus does a DNS lookup just when the target nameserver is down for an instant, or if the UDP packet gets lost on the network (IP networks don't have to guarantee delivery of IP packets), the DNS lookup could fail.

The version 7.8 DNS Retries feature is a RETRIES parameter for the JANUS NAMESERVER command.
