[SIPForum-discussion] Loose routing over strict routing

[Amit Ranjan Sahu]

Yes loose routing has lots of advantage over strict routing . As in
strict routing you are forcing a set of proxies . In loose routing you
have flexibility to deliver the request more efficiently . Also using
loose routing you can implement services like call forwarding ,
forking etc which is not possible with strict . also roaming scenario
is not possible in strict routing.

Thanks
