[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Richard,

the branch route is executed exactly before relaying the branch, for 
each branch. Also see my previous email:
    http://www.openser.org/pipermail/users/2005-September/000917.html
note that issue no 2 is done now - nathelper/mediaproxy functions are 
allowed to be called from branch route

So, what you have to do is: in branch route check with avpops if the  
src_ip is same as dst_uri/ruri IP part; if not, start the media rely and 
set a global flag to remember this - to avoid stating it again from 
another branch and to process the replies correctly. If the check fails 
in all branches, the media relay will not be started at all.

To enhance your setup, you may use per branch flags to recall which 
branch required media relay and which not. If you get a 200 OK for a 
branch which doesn't, stop the relay.

hope that helps you....

regards,
bogdan
