[SR-Users] event_route: what modules/functions are likely to work or not work

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

event_route should be compatible with request_route in most of the
cases, if not stated otherwise. However, there is usually a faked
request processed, generated internally by kamailio, without a purpose
to be routed out, but only to be safe in running various functions.

You can eventually ask for specific event_route blocks in order to be
able to provide appropriate details for it.

Cheers,
Daniel
