Hello Deepak,

601<sip:601 at 111.118.185.107>;tag=2f498fbd

is the 111.118.185.107 your server IP? it could be a client trying to
authenticate as Rusty suggest or an attacker attempting to gain access, if
you want to find out what IP address that request is coming from do the
following command. make sure you have tcpdump installed.

tcpdump -lni eth0 -f "udp port 5060"

monitor your server to make sure you catch the attacker, also you could do

tcpdump -w capture.cap

and analyze it with wireshark.

Thanks,
Motty
