For outbound requests, the outbound proxy does not need registrar functions.
It routes based on DNS. For inbound requests, its not an outbound proxy
anymore, its the proxy/registrar for the user. Thus, the statement that "the
outbound proxy needs to keep a database for the users inside the LAN" makes
no sense.

> This proxy is obviously an outbound proxy. Now this proxy

> their SIP URLs. Now, that means that the outbound proxy has
> to service the Register request.
> Is it so? If so what all information should it cache?
