Internet Connection VoIP test
If you are going to be using SIP connections for incoming/outgoing calls it is helpful to know if your internet connection is going to be able to handle it. Speed tests like this one http://myspeed.visualware.com/voip/ are helpful in checking your connection.
Installation
FusionPBX is multi-platform and can be installed on many operating systems. If you are wanting to install FusionPBX on an existing FreeSWITCH system then you should choose the relevant platform below and follow the appropriate instructions (before starting this, do note the warnings further down this page about the implications for your existing FreeSWITCH installation). If you are just wanting to test FusionPBX simply, then the best place to start is one of the ISO installs as it will get you up and running quickly (note that the draw back with ISO installs is that they normally start by erasing your harddrive so you need an unused machine to try them on OR you can try them in a virtual machine such as VirtualBox or VMware).
Below are instructions that have been provided for a few of the operating systems if yours is not listed the ones that exist should hint towards the general install process.
- CentOS ISO
- CentOS Install
- Debian Install
- FreeBSD Install
- Ubuntu Install
- Mac OS X Install
- pfSense Install
- Embedded Image
- G729 Install
[If you need to run the FusionPBX install.php again simply remove the includes/config.php file then browse to the index.php page on the root of the website - if you want to reinitialize the database, drop the entire DB, not just the tables]

Installing FusionPBX onto an existing install of FreeSWITCH will reset all your files in the FreeSWITCH conf folder to the FusionPBX defaults. Although FusionPBX tries to make a backup of your config, located in the folder conf.orig, it is still a good idea to back them up.
