Yes, this might work and is allowed.  However my understanding of the
best common practice these days is to keep sip related tcp connections
up until they need to be reclaimed.  This helps reduce delays and
processing overhead introduced by devices choosing to open and close tcp
connections for each transaction or dialog.
