Assume that the first SIP proxy that is part of the route set (in SIP 
outbound)
crashes and immediately restarts, or a backup proxy takes over. Is there 
any way to keep the dialog alive if either of the
endpoints senses this failure and recreates a connection or the dialog is 
doomed and needs to be
fully recreated again? The issue is that the route set includes the 
connection information, which is no longer valid.

tnx
