[OpenSIPS-Users] Calling engage_media_proxy per branch

[Richard Revels]

For scenario b I suspect you could just call a route from within the  
failure route and engage the media proxy there.  I know you will be  
able to make the function call without error, just never tested it to  
see if it has any undesired side effects.  Like not actually working.
