AFAIU, Any proxy which forms part of the route-set during call setup. It
must support backup and recovery mechanism.

One simple  example where the proxy supports billing functionality could be
part of the route-set and it shall support back and recovery. In this case
it shall back back up all the necessary data to recover if there is any
failure in the active unit. Otherwise it does not make sense to to be part
of a route-set.
