However we have a few single line extensions with consumer type handsets that ring at odd hours with "Asterisk" before the phone is picked up, and "Out of Area" after it is picked up. I have read that "Asterisk" is what is reported by Asterisk for 0 length caller ID number. But since we don't subscribe to Caller ID Name, I am wondering where the "Out of Area" is coming from? Could these be hacking attempts via IP? Perhaps they are doing the caller ID name? It only happens to a few extensions as far a we know. TIA for any input or knowledge. IP Hacking "should not" apply on your Telco lines. I'd start with your CDR file (/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/Master.csv) and go from there. I had in mind a hacking attempt IP calling extension lines that exist, but thanks, I will look at the cdrs.
