What business issue/problem are you trying to address by
blocking VoIP?  Since there's so many different things out
there (H.323, Skype, the various IM software), a "proper"
solution probably depends on what you're actually trying
to accomplish.  Consider:

1) Your problem is a wonky broken H.323 that dies when it
gets a connection from outside.

2) Your problem is "corporate insider uses VoIP to call a
competitor and leak trade secrets".

3) Your problem is "VoIP users bypassing billing for telephone calls".

All three will require different solutions, and there's probably
other scenarios as well.....
