FreePBX is an example, where it can be a critical problem.
3cx will work, but if you will restart asterisk 10 times - you will see
10 times more contacts in 3cx.
When you will make call from 3cx - it will make 10 calls (10 contacts),
untill they will obsolete...

For flexibility.
Not to register new fake contacts in peer PBX.

5+ !
Thank you, ACL is a good idea !

Some run multiple SIP transports on different ports for each account so they can differentiate based on where it came in on. Some look at the request URI coming in. Some just don't care.
Sniffered some time ago how it's done in phonerlite, jitsi, linksys, ...
Some use different port, some use ";rinstance=", the same like ";line="
in asterisk.
Was not sure it's a right way to go.
I will probably extend "line" a bit to specify it's value in pjsip.conf .
It will be less than 10 lines of code.
Thank you very much !
Your help will simplify my life a lot :-)
