[asterisk-users] Why are the hackers scanning for these?

[Steve Murphy]

Hey, I'm going thru logs, and I see some very common and interesting things
that the hackers are looking for.

In a whole bunch of scans, I've noticed that the first guess or two for sip
accounts
is usually a 10-digit number. I'm asking myself, why these numbers? Are they
looking
for a voip trunk? Or is it just like a serial number for the scan? What?

Here's some examples:

2648061411
3190339404
2685608247
3358171034
2092652562
2206598858

Just trying to follow the advice: "Know thy Enemy"
