[Freeswitch-users] What ports are really necessary?

[Michael Jerris]

It doesn't add anything significant.  I suppose it protects against weird icmp attacks but you'll have the same issues with all the rtp ports that you need to have open but may or may not have an open port on the other side.  If you have something listening on those ports but don't want outside access to them, thats a different story.
