Phantom calls on hosted voip phones behind Fortigate.

 Small office with a few Polycom phones from the local cable company.

No policies allowing incoming traffic from WAN1 but I see traffic like below.

wan1 in 68.35.27.144.5060 -> 24.49.187.25.65476: udp 540

internal out 68.35.27.144.5060 -> 10.88.1.18.5060: udp 532

The Fortinet receives packets on udp 65476 and the phone rings. 10k fake calls in a week.

I was able to replicate this with the sipp utility on Linux.

sipp 24.59.187.25:65476 (This makes the phone ring)

The option below appears to have stopped the calls.

 config system settings

 set sip-helper disable
