In a matter of fact, I am using a specific port. The port was
assigned to us by the operator. Thus when they cut off our SMPP
connection by switching off the network, we still keep the TCP
connection (because Kannel isn't being restarted). So when Kannel
attempts to re-bind, it failed.I figure that's what happened?
Now the operator of course won't change their settings, all i can do
is set up a workaround. How can I achieve this? Can Kannel tries to
rebind from attempting the TCP socket connection again?

Now in SMPP there is no mentioning of "old session" or "new
session". when you create a TCP stream, you have a new session. The
only error I can imagine is that you have set your own TCP port. If
you do that, the connection always comes from the same TCP port
while if you don't set it, your OS will allocate a new source port.
The setting is only there to work around some very stupid firewalls
admins who dont know what they are doing (I think we should put
some notes in the doc about that).
