) and I'm still perplexed how can Cisco leave this as-is with SIP and H.323
wide open for public as default settings, while being well aware of the
situation and it's possible consequences.<br>
<br>
I've been discussing this issue with some other colleagues as well in the
branch and I know this has happened to plenty of other people, in some
case causing very serious monetary damage.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>It was SIP , disabled sip on the wan port using an ACL

Do you happen to have custom scripts on the CME box? I had this<br>
problem as whoever developed the script left the hole open to dial<br>
anynumber from the AA. <br>

I would recommend that you do Two things
immediately. Install<br>
COR to limit calls and second implement Access List
to Kill<br>
H.323 coming from the internet.<br>

I have a site with CME and CUE , the internet link
is also<br>
terminated on my CME router, apparently some one has
hacked<br>
into the router and is using the router calling
numbers in<br>
cuba and somalia. This has caused a huge bill
from the phone<br>
company.We have TAC case openned for this, When we
shut the<br>
internet link this stops .<br>
