[VoiceOps] Solving port blocking issue @ softphone

[Ryan Delgrosso]

Add 2 or 3 more seemingly random ports for the SBC to listen on. Also 
add them in TCP.

have the softphone use DNS naptr records to order UDP then TCP srv 
records, and in each SRV record offer the same proxy with different 
ports. This will cause the softphone to try multiple ports on UDP then 
multiple ports on TCP until it finds success.

If the softphone doesn't support NAPTR, then you can use SRV only but 
you lose the ability to try different transports. If it doesnt support 
SRV records, find another softphone.
