Many thanks Kevin, so it's done via channel config and not dial plan
routing, I then presume due to protocol specific auth schemes. Very good
to know that.

In the meantime, I digged further and found that at least with oh323 ip
address based routing can be done with gotoif and the oh323_raddr
variable. This thankfully invalidates my original complaint, too :)

But I must say I'd still very much like if an identity concept related
to ip networking was available at dial plan level. Hopefully it's gonna
happen sometime in the future.

Anyway, consider this as settled as far as I am concerned, and again
thanks very much.

Regards, Bruno.
