That doesn't look like an RFC to me. It's not cataloged at rfc.net, and doesn't
have a number. I didn't even know it existed. Thanks though. Like most things
related to Openser, the knowledge is just assumed.

Before you can take advantage of what OpenSER has to offer, you should
become familiar with the the various RFC's associated with SIP
communication.
AVP stands for Attribute - Value Pair. Basically, it maps an attribute
for example, "NPA" to a value such as "212". The AVP's do have the
ability to use databases to store and retrieve values, however, this is
not a requirement. The configuration file can set, test and/or access
an AVP without any database access. In real life situations, you will
most probably want to use a database to store and retrieve AVP's.
RPID is defined here:

looks like it was written by the people who developed OpenSER, there's a lot of
implied/assumed knowledge there, and the scripting language is very high level,
it's bloody difficult to work out what the documentation means.
