asterisk users - Aug 2009 - Authenticating SIP peer on IP address only

Hi

I know this is far from best practice but is it possible to authenticate 
a sip peer on the IP address it's coming from so that it doesn't need to
use a UN and Pass?

In the sip.conf, just insert the host

Yes. That's exactly what "type=peer" is for.
