- new module: carrierroute - more flexibility in defining routing rules

Courtesy of Henning Westerhold of 1&1 Germany, a new module targeting large scale deployments was introduced in the trunk. 

The module provides routing, balancing and blacklisting capabilities, from a config file or a database source. It can use one routing tree, or if needed, for every user a different routing tree for number prefix based routing. It supports several route tree levels, e.g. for failback purposes.

This modules scales up to more than a million users, and is able to handle ore than 10k routing table entries. Not tested at the moment, but should be able to scale much more.

Routing tables can be reloaded and edited (in config file mode) with the MI nterface, the config file is updated according to the changes.

Please refer to the documentation at

for further informations, the source code of the modules is available in the svn trunk.
