[SR-Users] behaviour of exit();

Hello, I have the following statements in my config script. When either of the IF statements is true, what does the exit function do? Will it still pass the message to the next hop or will it just abort and drop the sip message? failure_route[DISPATCH_FAILURE] { xlog("L_INFO", "[R-FAILURE-ROUTE-DISPATCH-FAILURE:$ci] !>" "Route:DISPATCH_FAILURE;UnixTime:$TV(un);RequestURI:$rU;RequestMethod:$rm;Status:$rs;FromTag:$ft;ToTag:$tt;CallID:$ci;From:$fU;To:$rU\r\n"); t_on_branch("MSG_MOD"); if(t_is_expired()) { xlog("L_INFO", "[R-FAILURE-ROUTE-DISPATCH-FAILURE:$ci] !>" "Transaction expired - aborting\r\n"); exit; } if (t_is_canceled()) { xlog("L_INFO", "[R-FAILURE-ROUTE-DISPATCH-FAILURE:$ci] !>" "Transaction cancelled - aborting\r\n"); exit; } Thanks. Regards, Grant
