Re: 20-30Gbps UDP 1720 traffic appearing to originate from CN in last 24 hours

I’m sure this is just the extension of all the UDP amplification attacks that are ongoing.  My experience is that 
1720/CUCM should not be connected to a public network as those devices are often not well maintained or patched.

If it’s of value I can look at adding this to the set of things that are enumerated as part of the general UDP 
amplification problems that we continue to face due to the lack of SAV.

Has anyone else seen a massive amount of illegitimate UDP 1720 traffic coming from China being sent towards IP 
addresses which provide VoIP services?

I'm talking in the 20-30Gbps range?

The first incident was yesterday at around 13:00 EST, the second incident was today at 09:00 EST.

I'm assuming this is just another DDoS like all others, but I would be interested to hear if I am not the only one 
seeing this.

On list or off-list is fine.

Thanks,
