Hello To cut down on the number of hackers trying to break into an Asterisk server, I'd like to simply move the SIP port from the standard UDP 5060 to something non-standard.
Since this server must be able to receive INVITEs from any SIP UA (server or client), it appears that I must add an SRV record in the DNS so that they can locate the server and the port used to reach it. _sip._udp SRV 0 5060 host.tld. www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/DNS+SRV Are there pitfalls/traps I must pay attention to before going ahead and add that type of record in the DNS? What about internal SIP clients that register with Asterisk: Will they query the DNS to find the SIP port also, or must reconfigure them all to use the non-standard port Asterisk listens on? Thank you. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
