With some UAs allowing to have login id different from user id (such as
ata 186) you should be able to do it by configuring all your UAs with
the same login id/password, but with different user ids.

You will be unable to do it transparently in the SER, because SER isn't
call stateful, while handling SIP digest authorization requres it to be
so.

Alternatively you can use SER+B2BUA for this. Our company use specially
extended Vovida B2BUA, if you really need it we can give you our
patches.
