Socket reset

Question

My application connects as a client via ethernet to the server process.

Since the server is well known and will not change, UDP and TCP are set using

socket(); 
setsockopt(SO_REUSEADDR);
bind(); 
connect();

The connection protocol includes bits sent in both directions.

When I find a connection error, for example. hearbeat timeout, I need to reset the connection.

Is it enough to just connect () to a NULL address and then reconnect () after a short pause or close the box and then reinitialize from scratch?

thank
