I understand that. But CDR comes after the call is done. Sometimes one
minute costs 10$ and I understand this after 20 minutes. I agree that this
things doest't guarantee anything but it is funcionality of so called SBC.
And it helps almost in any case except attackers broke sip device and sends
traffic from this devices where monitoring and various limitations are
really important. And about REFFER attack it is really very dangerous thing
that is not fixes yet.
