Hi, RFC 3581 defines the usage of ;rport Via param in order for a
server to send UDP responses to the request source port (rather than
the port indicated in Via sent-by).

But this is completely useless in SIP over TCP as, per RFC 3261,
responses are primary sent over the same connection in which the
request was received. If the connection is broken, next attemp uses
request's Via sent-by host and port.

So, MUST a server perform the ;rport inspection for a SIP request
coming over TCP? I know it MAY, I just want to know if it MUST do it.

Thanks.
