Remember unless it gets blocked upstream the packet will still hit your firewall/server. Not FreeSWITCH sure, but it'll still consume some resources to receive, identify and block it. The scanner does not care that you're not responding, it'll continue to send anyway. On 14 October 2013 15:57, Mimiko <vbvbrj@gmail.com> wrote:

This is sipvicious, its a brute force scanner... See http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Fail2ban on how to setup Fail2ban with FreeSWITCH to defeat this attack
Ken thank you. I am planning to set up Fail2ban. But for now need to drop any packet from offending IP.
