Thank you Alex and Federico,
I verified, and SO_REUSEPORT is defined on my OS. I am using Kamailio 5.2 and I set
‘tcp_reuse_port=yes;’ and $fs; this has been to no avail as ‘ACK’s’ are still using the
high port number randomly assigned by Kamailio.
Thank you all for sharing your knowledge!

You are right Alex, Linux kernel didn't support SO_REUSEPORT, which allows a socket to
be used as source for a tcp connection while is already bound, until version 3.9.
Kamailio's parameter tcp_reuse_port, if enabled and your OS has support for
SO_REUSEPORT (so not only Linux but FreeBSD, OSX and others), allows you to use
force_send_socket (or $fs) to send messages from a TCP port kamailio is listening to.
Cheers,
Federico

When an outgoing TCP connection is opened, either a port can be
explicitly bound, or it is auto-assigned by the OS's networking stack. I
believe Kamailio does the latter and does not offer options to constrain
the range. If it does, I'm not aware of any apart from this one:

Not sure if it would help in this case, you'd have to give it a try.

It appears that the bottom line of my TCP transport
not working is that Kamailio is randomly assigning large port numbers to send the TCP
traffic out on.
I am not able to randomly open high ports for this purpose. Is there a way to tell
Kamailio to only use specific ports for this. I have tried using
force_send_socket() with Kamailio' s IP, and the port I want to send out on, but this
did not work either. Does this sound like I am on the right track?
Thank you,
