[asterisk-users] Detect IP path before calling

Doesn't seem to have effect.  Probably I should state the problem more 
clearly.  Ideally, Asterisk should not attempt SIP if there's no way to 
establish a SIP call.  This may include lack of IP connection (ping timeout, 
for example), or no SIP listener on remote side (this would be difficult 
because Asterisk can only use UDP).

My environment does not require remote end point to register, so consulting 
the registry is not an option. (This is perhaps what ChanIsAvail does.)

Any suggestions?  I'll go to scripting if no other easy way.
