Why do I periodically get several repeated calls from "101"?
flex25:
I also got another one today, peer name sipvicious, peer number 100. I was unable to format an IP range in Service Providers->ITSP Profile A/B->SIP->X_AccessList. I use Callcentric, and they use an IP range. Obi takes individual IP addresses, separated by commas.

flex25,
Yes we have been there before. That should be a feature request, don't you think. ;)
flex25:
Right you are, QBZappy! It has been done. Hopefully, Obi will make this update.
Stewart:
If you use a random value for SP1 -> X_UserAgentPort (instead of 5060), you will rarely, if ever, see a bogus call. IMO 98%+ of SIP scans are to port 5060.
ianobi:
@Stewart. I'm sure that you are correct regarding AgentPorts. I have used 5070(sp1) and 5071(sp2) and had six months free of bogus calls to my OBi110. That is until last night when I got calls from PeerNumber 1000 on sp1 and sp2 at 4am >:( It does not matter where you live in the world, they always call in the middle of the night!
Just how random can we make AgentPorts? Most people seem to use ports in the 5xxx range. Is there a good reason for this? I don't want to restrict access from odd ip addresses as this can be useful when travelling. I guess a combination of random AgentPorts and using RonR's "sending them to the bit bucket" is the answer.
