Summary

In this chapter, we were introduced to the default configuration of FreeSWITCH. Among the topics we discussed, were the following:

  • The important concepts behind how and why FreeSWITCH behaves when you make calls
  • Basic use of fs_cli, the FreeSWITCH command-line interface utility.
  • How to configure SIP devices to connect to FreeSWITCH using the predefined user accounts
  • Testing the default Dialplan by dialling a number of different extensions

We now turn our attention to another important aspect of FreeSWITCH: the user directory.

In the next chapter, we will take a closer look at the FreeSWITCH user directory.
