[Serusers] configuring ser.cfg for ip addresses

[Amen Holmes]

Thanks - that makes sense.
If I am using a url instead of defining the ip address, e.g. iptel.org, why don't I need to put in the backslash to escape the . character?

Yes, =~ means "match using regular expression" and the string between
quotes is supposed to be a regular expressions. Therefore you have to
escape . characters with backslash:

if (uri=~"^sip:[09][0-9]*@194\.xxx\.xxx\.xxx") {
