Can anyone suggest why this alerts keep triggering on regular basis. Internal connection - destination port is 5060. Observed multiple SYN/FIN connection. SIP Register Request Attempt(33592 ) SIP clients typically use TCP or UDP on port numbers 5060 or 5061 for SIP traffic to servers and other endpoints. Port 5060 is commonly used for non-encrypted signaling traffic whereas port 5061 is typically used for traffic encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TLS). A SYN-FIN flood is a DDoS attack designed to disrupt network activity by saturating bandwidth and resources on stateful devices in its path. By continuously sending SYN-FIN packets towards a target, stateful defenses can go down (In some cases into a fail open mode). On checking logs in DT, # SF Normal establishment and termination. # RSTR Established, responder aborted. # SH Originator sent a SYN followed by a FIN, we never saw a SYN ACK from the responder (hence the connection was "half" open). # OTH No SYN seen, just midstream traffic (a "partial connection" that was not later closed).
