Connections can be dropped from other reasons, not only restarts (like
congested routers on the path), so if your client is not able to
reconnect, then it will get in troubles anyhow.
You can also build a topology with an edge proxy (referred by many as
sbc), which sits in between the client and the main sip server, with a
very basic configuration that you don't need to change. This is actually
something recommended, in the edge proxy you can filter bad traffic
(scanning attacks, malformed sip packets) and behind it you can have
many sip servers (for redundancy/high availability), routing traffic to
them using dispatcher module (load balancer).
Edge proxy and main proxy can be even on the same system, but using
different ports.

Thanks Daniel.
Since there are WebRTC clients connected, restart should be avoided in
my case
Is there any plan to add configuration file reload in future?

Hello,
if you need to change the routing logic, then you have to restart. If
you use UDP, it is not noticed at all by the clients and active calls
are not affected at all.
Restart is very fast. Also, the content of the config should be only
logic, the values (like IP addresses), should be inside the database
-- for example lcr, dispatcher, ... can reload the records from
database without a need to restart, but by issuing a MI/RPC command.
Changing values for parameters can be done for many of them using
command line.
Cheers,

Hi
What are different ways to reload Kamailio configuration file
without restart?
I need to make configuration file changes on production server
without bringing down kamailio service.
