You don't say what version of asterisk you are running this on, or have
any config snippets, so difficult to say what might be wrong.

Check that in the [general] section of sip.conf, you have:

limitonpeers=yes

Also try setting for each extn in sip.conf, call-limit to some value.

I have the following:

call-limit=4

In each sip.conf extn entry.

(In this case I don't think the actual number is that critical, just
that it must be set to something, otherwise the BLF keys don't seem to
work properly.) This may only apply to asterisk versions prior to 1.4
though.

Then do a reload from CLI.
