+   Where <destination-addr> is something like '127.0.0.1:5060'.
+   Where <options> are in standard Asterisk flag options format:
+   c(<codec>) - Specify which codec/format to use such as 'ulaw'.
+   e(<engine>) - Specify which RTP engine to use such as 'asterisk'.

+   MulticastRTP/<type>/<destination-addr>[/[<control-addr>][/[<options>]]]

+   Where <destination-addr> is something like '224.0.0.3:5060'.
+   Where <control-addr> is something like '127.0.0.1:5060'.
