Since you asked, yes. ;-)

I do have an asterisk here and it does need some UDP ports open for
incoming traffic.  Simplest is just to open these ports in iptables
(or whatever) to allow outside packets to hit this local ports.

53/udp      (if running a local named)
5004/udp    RTP official port number (if using sip phones)
5060/udp    SIP
4569/udp    AIX2
10000/udp - 10100/udp  RTP as used by asterisk

Now the word of warning -- asterisk isn't the most defensively written
program.  The stock config runs as root without a chroot and has
plenty of system() calls.  It is a program that pretty much dares the
kiddies to find a buffer overflow and get rewarded with a root shell.
