Correct me if I am wrong - but the potential for a DoS attack would only 
be if an untrusted user is able to gain access to the asterisk server 
and the CLI to run commands? Or somehow hijack the SIP session coming 
from the server? Just trying to understand the security implications of 
allowing the phones to be rebooted remotely (which is a big plus imho).
