Followup,

I'd like to hear from others with their comments.

I tested with Asterisk 11, the long supported deny/permit in sip.conf will 
generate the "acl.c:.. Rejecting 'ip.xx.xx.xx'..." logs as noted below with a 
failed attempt outside of the deny/permit range.

The question for others here, is such a failure worthy for the Adaptive Ban 
plugin to match and blacklist the IP address ?

The value of banning such an IP is not as useful as the case where this 
attacker is brute forcing passwords, since the ACL will always fail, but if 
this is a sign of a real attacking IP address then any clue to ban them is a 
good thing.

Other than misconfiguration, I can't think of a case when this would be a false 
positive or caused by a dialing error.

Should such a log cause the Adaptive Ban plugin to match and possibly ban ?
