A protocol address (Port Number and Ipaddress) will stuck in TIME_WAIT state for maximum of 2MSL which I think is 2 minutes (I coudnt remembered it correctly). So once the TIME_WAIT is over that protocol address will be released and can be used at any time.

sdpadm
sdpadm(1M) System Administration Commands sdpadm(1M)
NAME
sdpadm - SDP system configuration administration
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/sdpadm status | enable | disable
DESCRIPTION
The sdpadm command is used to display the system state of the Sockets Direct Protocol (SDP) protocol. The sdpadm command can optionally be
used to set the state of the SDP protocol. See sdp(7D).
By default the SDP protocol is disabled on the system. It can be enabled by using sdpadm enable.
OPTIONS
The following subcommands are supported:
status Displays the system status of the SDP protocol
enable Enables the SDP protocol
disable Disables the SDP protocol
USAGE
The required privileges to change the state of the SDP protocol are controlled by the network configuration policy. If a user does not have
the correct privileges to set the SDP policy, sdpadm returns the current state of SDP without having changed the state.
