OK thru some googling and reading help files I've blocked the IP address. I then used iptables -L to verify I did it. I will monitor the CLI and see if the see if the attempts keep coming.

Thank you

OK so I found the offending IP address out of South Brisdane, Queensland. They are just going thru 4 digit extensions one by one, they file is quite large. What should I do next? Block the IP and report it?

-----------------

Check the file /var/log/asterisk/messages for some helpful clues where the attempts are coming from.

Look for SECURITY[numbercode]   there should be some ip addresses on the same line.

You can find out more about the ip address and the subnet involved by going to: http://mxtoolbox.com/arin.aspx and enter the ip address.

Do you know how to set up the iptable rules?

It's more of a nuisance than anything else.    Still a good idea to learn how to use iptables, it will make things easier in the long run.
