[SR-Users] kamctl or kamcmd way to enable/disable sections of configs

The defines are preprocessor directives, therefore they are evaluated at
start-up, before parsing the configuration file. Practically, those
parts not enabled at start up are not seen by kamailio config
interpreter at runtime, they cannot be enabled because they don't exist
in memory.

The solution here is to use shared memory variables, like:

if($shv(enabled)==1) {

   route(2);

}

The value of $shv(enabled) can be changed with rpc commands using
kamcli/kamctl/...

Cheers,
Daniel
