    Hi Asghar,<br>
    <br>
    surely this can improve security but what I'm looking for is
    something to find the real attacker IP address and ban it. Fail2ban
    bans my own public ip address.<br>
    <br>
    Thank you<br>

                  <br>
                  I get a lot of these messages on my Asterisk CLI:<br>
                  <br>
                  "Failed to authenticate user 1000<a
                    moz-do-not-send="true"><sip:1000@MY_OWN_IP_ADDRESS></a>;tag=03f82bb9"<br>
                  <br>
                  as if my PBX machine is trying to authenticate to
                  itself. It seems someone is attacking my asterisk PBX.<br>
                  <br>
                  Is there a way to fix this problem?</blockquote>

              in sip.conf I have guest connections permitted and have
              them going to the default context which contains :-<br>
              <br>
              [default]<br>
              ; all unauthenticated connection attempts from the
              internet come in here.<br>

              - ${SIP_HEADER(Contact)})<br>
              exten => _[+*#0-9].,n,Congestion<br>
              <br>
              Then in fail2ban I have it match the following :-<br>
              <br>
              failregex = Registration from .* failed for
