Description:	autocreatepeer uses the 'from' field from the device trying to register as the sip peer name. This can be problematic if you do not have control over the device trying to register. This patch adds an autocreatepeer=prefix option, and additionally an autocreateprefix string. The default prefix is "autopeer_". When an unknown device attempts to register with Aterisk and autocreatepeer=prefix is set, the peer name becomes the prefix + number. (e.g. "autopeer_0", "autopeer_1", etc.). Additonally, the AMI event for peer registration has an additional field "Inceptor: Automatic" if the registration is due to the autocreatepeer function. Finally, a double-register AMI event is removed. Current functionality emits two registration AMI events for every autocreated peer; the patch corrects that.

Also you have a warning that starts with 'no' and would prefer it to be 'No' :).

Thanks! By: Corey Farrell (coreyfarrell) 2017-12-12 17:35:27.052-0600 Closing as we received no response to a patch review and the patch no longer applies to current versions of Asterisk.
