Hi Asghar,

surely this can improve security but what I'm looking for is something to find the real attacker IP address and ban it. Fail2ban bans my own public ip address.

Thank you

Giorgio

Bad boys trying to guess a valid username.
in sip.conf uncomment alwaysauthreject=yes and Asterisk always reject 1st invite.

        Hi,

        I get a lot of these messages on my Asterisk CLI:

        "Failed to authenticate user
        1000<sip:1000@MY_OWN_IP_ADDRESS>;tag=03f82bb9"

        as if my PBX machine is trying to authenticate to itself. It
        seems someone is attacking my asterisk PBX.

        Is there a way to fix this problem?


    in sip.conf I have guest connections permitted and have them going
    to the default context which contains :-

    [default]
    ; all unauthenticated connection attempts from the internet come
    in here.
    exten => _[+*#0-9].,1,NoOp(Unauthenticated call attempt -
    ${SIP_HEADER(Contact)})
    exten => _[+*#0-9].,n,Congestion

    Then in fail2ban I have it match the following :-

    failregex = Registration from .* failed for \'<HOST>\' - Wrong
    password
                Unauthenticated call attempt .*\@<HOST>\:
