[App_rpt-users] SIP bots, hack attempts?

Mon May 21 02:27:51 UTC 2012

Any VOIP system with exposed SIP ports will get hit regularly by 'bots trying to get in.
(I mostly see them from China and other Asian countries…)

First, make sure your system is behind a firewall.  Don't expose any ports you don't absolutely have to.
Second, use really good passwords on your SIP accounts and anything else that is exposed to the outside.
Third, make sure that if they manage to hack a SIP account, make sure they can't run up a bunch of charges on an outbound VOIP trunk.
(If you have a VOIP provider hooked up for outbound calls, only leave enough money prepaid in the account you are willing to risk; maybe $25 or so.  Don't enable international calls.  Don't enable auto-replenishment from a credit card.)

If they get in, they will route dozens of calls simultaneously through your system.  In a half hour, they can run up thousands of call minutes if you let them.

>> Been looking through the old forums and trying to get a handle on how to add  SIP extensions to my all-star box.  We are currently running acid distro on our repeater and using the allstarlink auto patch service.   I would like to be able to add a few sip extensions   so when i am on my cell phone i can connect to the repeater and listen or dial  my wife who is a ham on a different extension and ring her phone.   The extensions do not have to have  "outside access" for the auto patch as the extensions would be used for internal communication to and from the repeater or to and from other extensions i add .  Example  extension 123 (which would be a sip client) be able to dial 28079 which is the repeater.  or  a person on the repeater  be able to dial  extension 123 and have the sip client ring.  I have a static ip address so i know that won't be a problem,  just a little confused on how to add everything in the  config files.   Does anyone by  chance have a good working example
>>  they could share?  I would try the other distro  but everyone like the web trans idea instead of using echo link  :)
