No 1000 to 2000 is not a typo.
Well let me put some light on this......

If you goto http://www.ipkall.com/
and your firewall is set to 10000 to 20000 you WILL NOT get SIP calls from http://www.ipkall.com/ DID's

As soon as you OPEN ports 1000 to 2000 to the PBX Server the calls from http://www.ipkall.com/ will work fine.

You DON'T have to make any changes to /etc/asterisk/rtp.conf

This is what I ran into today

So I guess you are right... It's a free for all on ports. Makes things harder to do.
I think we need to get a better standard just to make this easier.

Yes you are right 10000-20000 are rtp ports used by asterisk by default
I have some that do set a custom range in /etc/asterisk/rtp.conf ..

After looking around.. There were not any notes about the 1000 - 2000 port
range on there website.
As you know if you don't know what the ports are it no workie!!!!!
And it is not good to DMZ the server.....
----------
Now I have a handytone 386 that is set to

SIP port 5060 and 5062
RTP port 5004 and 5008

You can set Random Ports to use:  1024 to 65535

The handytone will work fine on the LAN.... But if you would moved the
Handytone to the internet it would NOT work do to the firewall..
Using the asterisk defaults
----------
So liked I ask before  "So is there any standard ports"


Both sides have to be willing to negotiate a port. Maybe your
handytone has its own restrictions on RTP ports? As you now know,
Asterisk doesn't care as long as you specify a range in rtp.conf.

1000-2000 must be a typo as ports <1024 are reserved and privileged.

There's no standard - there are several different conventions adopted
by different vendors, though.
