There should not be any issue in doing this.  In our switch the call
would simply be routed back to the source.  A data connection would be
set up in the switch which simply loops the data back to the sender.
Our host UNIs do not look specifically look for a loopback condition,
except for the one (UNI) which exists within our switch.  They simply
let the network take care of it..
