In that case, this thread may be helpful https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays/2016-December/011117.html (Unwarranted discrimination of relays with dynamic IP) 

TLDR; 
There are advantages to resetting when a relay's IP address changes:
 * a changed IP usually means a changed network with different characteristics,
 * if the relay IP address changes, there's no guarantee it will be just as reachable or stable at the new IP,
 * stolen keys become much less valuable,
 * duplicate keys / failover strategies are discouraged.

Murad.
