Clearly, you can only authenticate sequential requests corresponding to calls whose
initial requests were subject to authentication. If the initial request was not
authenticated, there is no reason to believe that the endpoint would support
authentication of sequential requests.
As to whether you should do this, that is a controversial matter. I suppose that the
security-maximising approach would be to challenge all requests, but it invites problems
with many endpoints.

Hello,
Should I be requiring users to authenticate before letting
them into loose_route(); ? What about anonymous calls from E164, how do
I authenticate these calls after they have started?
Thanks,
David
