I'd like to only allow the calls from certain IP's. I tried to added IP to the acl configuration file and could not make it work. And there is not much information on how to use acl.conf.xml.

Let's say that I have <list name="domains" default="deny"> and I only want outside incoming calls from certain  IP's., how can I do that? Can anybody give me an example?

Do you want to open your switch to the whole wide world? Or do you just want to allow any calls from certain IP addresses?

Installed freeswitch (FreeSWITCH Version 1.0.7 (hacked-20110126T141401Z)) with default configuration.

I registered two sip phones with user id 1007 and 1001. I then dial 9196 for echo test from sip phone 1001 and it worked. Then I make change to acl.conf.xml:

from     <list name="domains" default="deny">

to     <list name="domains" default="allow">

After this change, dialing 9196 stopped working. By looking at console, I can see that before the change

the call first hit default context. and then after the change the call first hit public context.

Does anybody know why?

I'd like to setup freeswitch to allow both inbound and outbound calls using port 5060. That is why I made above change on acl.conf.xml.
