Asterisk sip insecure

Author image

Insecure (For asterisk 1.0.9 and above)

  • port: ignore the port number where the request came from
  • invite: don’t require authentication of incoming INVITEs
  • port,invite: don’t require initial INVITE to authenticate and ignore the port where the request came from

Note: This doesn’t seem to work with 1.6+

Examples:

  • insecure=port ; Allow matching of peer by IP address without matching port number
  • insecure=invite ; Do not require authentication of incoming INVITEs
  • insecure=port,invite ; (both)

Typically used to allow incoming calls (e.g. from FWD) while having a type=friend entry defined with username and password.

  • autocreatepeer=yes

Insecure (For asterisk 1.0.9 and earlier)

  • very: ignore authentication (user/password)
  • yes: ??

Examples:

  • insecure=very
  • insecure=yes ; To match a peer based by IP address only and not port
  • insecure=very ; To allow registered hosts to call without re-authenticating

Typically used to allow incoming calls (e.g. from FWD) while having a type=friend entry defined with username and password.
