Vadim Lebedev - you are chasing the wrong direction here. If you look at the docs, there
is a global parameter tcp_reuse_port for this purpose, setting SO_REUSEPORT if available
in the OS. However, the discussion here is in the context of a collision of ports as
mentioned again by @Forty-Tw0 in the comment:
* https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/issues/1532#issuecomment-399254671
So to conclude:
* kamailio is reusing the connection from REGISTER to send back traffic to the device,
it is no other way if the device is behind a non-port forwarding NAT (e.g., symmetric
NAT)
* if it doesn't, then the pcap should help to see if the INVITE created some other
connection or uses a different Contact address so the REGISTER connection is not matching
anymore
The reason I closed here is because this seems like a specific use case issue that can be
discussed on sr-users once we see pcaps, rather than an issue in the code. Based on
conclusion there, we can chase futher the code or config options. We do not use issue
tracker as a discussion forum to decide if it is a bug or not, the issue here have to be
opened when it is clear a bug in the code (or a feature request).
@Forty-Tw0 - as suggested, let's discuss this use case scenario on sr-users mailing
list. Again, there are many aspects that might not use a clear terminology, like `Device A
receives a SIP message with a contact telling them to respond to Kamailio on 5062, which
causes it to create a new TCP connection` -- what to respond on 5062? The SIP response or
follow up requests? These are either Via or Record-Route or Contact headers ... so a lot
to clarify and can be just config things that needs to be tuned, sr-users is the right
place to discuss and get to a conclusion of how it can be fixed.
