I don't have the SIP traces right now, but I see causes like MEDIA_TIMEOUT,
*DESTINATION_OUT_OF_ORDER* , *NORMAL_UNSPECIFIED* , *NETWORK_OUT_OF_ORDER*
and *RECOVERY_ON_TIMER_EXPIRE*  and the calls were still good. We are not
talking about a few, they were around 50K + calls for such reasons in 24
hours. I'll try to capture SIP for any new calls. Was just curious what's
going on.
