I came away with the same conclusion you did; it's really only
applicable to closely-aligned parties that want to federate, not for any
 providers that may provide SIP connectivity in between the parties that
want to federate. This would make it somewhat complex to deploy in a
hosted PBX scenario, unless the ViPR server was also virtualized to
provide a separate set of data for each hosted PBX that chose to use ViPR.
