[OpenSIPS-Users] Gw module or dispatch authentication?

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Brian,

Take a look at the UAC module - it can do user auth  -  
http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/uac.html

you can use the attr field in the drouting module to store the username 
and password required by that GW and dynamically inject them into UAC.

Regards,
Bogdan
