The same gateway may appear many times in different tests. While the code that authorizes the call does not (or should not) care the end result is that you can certainly use the same gateway in many rules and expect everything to work properly. > > I believe that we have never considered the case where more than one > dialing rule with different permissions goes to one gateway, with the > exception of how emergency calls are routed to a gateway. > We have considered it and we do support that. Also since 4.0 there are no longer any exceptions related to emergency rules. All calls are routed in the same way.
