[OpenSIPS-Users] Branch Versus Fork

[Rudy]

Jerry,

 When you are referring to forking in SIP, you probably should use the
term "parallel forking". This occurs when you are trying to complete
several "branches" all at once. A branch can also be called a call
"leg". By default, when you t_relay() a call, it will go after each
branch all at the same time (parallel fork). Sometimes this is not the
desired behavior, and instead, you want to try each branch one at a
time. You can do this with the serialize_branches() function,

Thanks in advance,
