You can build the routing logic statically in kamailio configuration 
file. But in many cases you can use a module that loads the routing 
rules from database. It is where siremis can help, by managing those 
rules in database. Then you can send a MI/RPC command to kamailio to 
tell to a module to load its rules from database, without need to restart.

For example, pdt module, it loads its rules to translate a prefix to a 
domain from pdt table at startup. If you change something in database, 
then you can send a command using kamctl to reload all the rules from 
database. The configuration file is not affected at all by such operations.

Ramona
