[OpenSIPS-Users] TCP Sockets Phones De-Register and then Quickly Re-Register.

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi David,

With TCP, there is no need to have the TCP connection up during the 
whole duration of the registration - it is perfectly normal for the TCP 
conn to be terminated after REGISTER request (by server or client side).

For example, opensips has a timeout - for how long it should keep an 
unused TCP connection (see 
http://www.opensips.org/Resources/DocsCoreFcn16#toc73).

If the UAC is behind NAT, it is a bit of different story, as the TCP 
conn must stay open - the server cannot open later a TCP conn behind 
NAT. For such cases see:
       
http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/1.6.x/registrar.html#id250051

Regards,
Bogdan
