It is complex, but not impossible.


I think is is feasable to do accounting on the proxy _IF_ you can trust your 
gateways and make use of that trust.

Start accounting on receipt of a 200 OK on an INVITE request.

Stop accounting:
1) On 200 OK (or maybe 481 or other response) from the gateway in response to 
a BYE.
2) On BYE from the gateway
