Yes we are sending calls to different uris this means we are calling to 
different PSTN numbers. It is because we are using the 
"uri=~001[1-9][0-9]{9}@.*" value.
Route(1) is applying the lookup("location")

I don't understand very well this part. Could you give me an example?

Unfortunally the GW is behind a NAT with a Dynamic Public IP address. 
The only static IP is the private IP assigned to the GW's ethernet 
interface. It is because we can't use the rewritehostport( ) function.
