[SR-Users] Kamailio $Rp variable showing wrong port

The $Rp is intended to give the attribute of the listen socket
associated with the SIP traffic. It is not taken from the IP layer,
maybe another variable can be done if people need it.

I didn't get the chance to look at the logs and the code, but I guess
that not being an exact match of port with one of listen sockets, then
the first is selected.

As I understood in this discussion, a VIP (or advertised/firewall IP) is
involved, not sure if this has any impact in matching.

For SIP traffic, there might be ways to improve the matching once
parsing some headers (e.g., using top Via for replies).

I am not sure it can be seen as a bug, due to how tcp works and what $Rp
is intended to do, but can be an enhancement to introduce additional
matching modes or variables for IP layer for local receiving port.

Cheers,
Daniel
