Have thought using L3/L4 high performance switches? You can program your routes 
and ACL to restrict access to your Asterisk server.

The good ones are a bit expansive, but they're the only one who can do the job 
under high traffic volume.

Allied Telesis has a good switch for this application: AT-x900-12XT/S.

Expect to pay about $1,600 to $1,700 for this unit.

Or you can look at Cisco Catalyst switches, but they're too expansive and the 
Allied Telesis does the job perfectly.

Good luck.
