There is a specification for doing it, but it's not required by the main
SIP RFC. In fact the main one states that you're supposed to establish an
outgoing connection to the address in the Contact header. In practice,
though, this is futile as generally NAT Is in use so you can't connect back
and thus you reuse the connection. The chan_sip module should do this
automatically, while chan_pjsip will do this if "rewrite_contact" is set to
yes.
