You usually don't enter the user's IP in aliases. If we assume you have 
the domain sip.yourdomain.com, then you will add the alias like:

	serctl alias add 1234 sip:john.doe at sip.yourdomain.com

So a lookup("aliases") will rewrite the uri from 
sip:1234 at sip.yourdomain.com to sip:john.doe at sip.yourdomain.com, and for 
that uri you can lookup("location") to finally get the current contact 
of john.doe.
