[Asterisk-Users] Nested/cascading "switch" statements: possible?

[Paul Cheng]

John,

If I remember correctly, we accidentally did something like this and 
caused an infinite loop between a few of our servers (resulting in an 
IAX "Out of Trunk Space" message), but if Server C doesn't point back 
to Server A, then it should work...
