For the sake of discussion, I think it's somewhat possible to route rtp/rtcp with kamailio. Does it make sense? No. Would it work? Probably, in a limited way.

So if I wanted to do something like this, then I'd find the point where kamailio is actually calling recv(), then find out where it feeds the received data into the sip parser. There, I'd implement the logic to quickly check if what we're dealing with is an rtp packet, and handle it differently than other packets. For SDP in request and response bodies flowing through my config, I'd modify SDP to put 5060 as media port for the various streams. Now since every packet will be received on port 5060, you can't really distinguish between different streams, as you can't rely on the source address advertised in SDP because of NAT, so any NAT scenario with more than one phone behind that NAT is going to break the whole thing. Well, putting aside NAT, you now would have to maintain mapping tables of source addresses announced in SDP and check (and rely on) them for inbound packets and map them to the outbound leg based on the source address. That might work for non-NAT scenarios (but who's using NAT in a world of IPv6 anyways?). Now the question is, why would anyone want to do that? If the intention is to make it work better in NAT environments, then our OP has probably not thought it through entirely.
