[cisco-voip] SIP Trunk Redundancy

I will try changing the invites for sure.
I noticed that they are using a custom security profile and I just found out
that the provider is currently only accepting UDP for outgoing. Apparently
they had issues when they first set this up and the only way they could get
it working was to lock in the security profile with outgoing UDP. Think this
might be part of the problem?
