[arm-allstar] A way to check allstar connection status

[Bryan St Clair]

If you want to trigger off a dns error, do just that.

Script a dns query on your own node number and if a error returns, perform
the action you want.

But I wouldn't run it too often, I could see that loop easily if there was
ever a slow update to registration status.

Would be smarter to setup a reverse ssh tunnel and you can restart it as
needed.
