[Freeswitch-users] Keeping local calls local

[Avi Marcus]

Brian, sorry, but mod_lcr for routing internal DIDs sounds like a terrible
idea.

a) it's not DRY -- you'll have to duplicate your internal routing tables.
b) if it fails to connect to the "local" endpoint.. then if you're using
mod_lcr for the routing too, it will then try the external carriers...
which come back in and it surely won't work better than connecting directly!
