Summary:                    Dial(SIP/exten at host:port) ignores port
Description: 
If you do a Dial to a non-standard port, for example:

Dial(SIP/conference at 1.2.3.4:5070)

the port (5070) is ignored by Asterisk.

acunningham: I see what you're saying, but I do see a potential downside.
If we attempt to match a peer based on both the name and port, and come up
with no match, then Asterisk will route the call the the IP address and
port specified in the Dial string. The problem is that if this occurs, then
none of the settings in sip.conf for that peer will be applied for the
call. While this may not be a problem for your setup, it could cause
problems for others.

My idea for a change was a bit simpler. If a port is specified in the
string to Dial, never ignore it and always route calls to that destination
port, no matter what may be listed in sip.conf. This way, you would still
get your peer settings for the call but it would routed to the port that
was specified in Dial.
