Rizwan,

There is no way to make a single instance of Asterisk listen on multiple 
ports.  However, you can use an iptables REDIRECT to achieve the same 
functionality.

To redirect a single port with iptables:

  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p udp --dport 5062 -j REDIRECT 
--to-ports 5060

This example redirects UPD port 5062 to port 5060, which effectively 
allows Asterisk to listen on both of them.  Remember to save the rule so 
that it survives a reboot.
