[OpenSIPS-Users] Drouting with carriers with inound & outbound gateways

[Vlad Paiu]

Hey James,

If you don't want to separate the carriers gateways into 2 separate 
carriers ( ie. CARRIER_INBOUND and CARRIER_OUTBOUND ) then the only 
other option is to add a new 'type' param to route_to_carrier, similar 
to how is_from_gw is taking a type param.

Feel free to open a feature request for this
