  • I don’t think you can do this natively within Asterisk, but take a look at SecAst (from http://www.telium.ca<http://www.telium.ca/> ). There is a free edition you can download right from the web site.

    SecAst will monitor the rate at which a user/device places calls to detect potential fraud. (I assume that is what you are trying to achieve). It also checks for suspicious dialed digits/patterns, geographic location of the caller based on IP, etc…it may be overkill if this is just a small home system though.

  • You could use fail2ban for this by adding your own filter string specific for that user. It would have the advantage of blocking further calls as well as alerting you by email.
