Continuing from the FreeSWITCH stuff. I learned about the RTMP module
which enables us to connect to the FreeSWITCH server via web browser and
make calls just like any other Soft-phone.
This is wonderful, I don't need to install any soft-phone or anything, just open up my FS server RTMP phone page - login using my SIP credentials and once authenticated make calls !! simple.
In order to get it working I went back to the source directory of Freeswitch and just compiled thertmp module. Learn more about the FreeSWITCH RTMP Module from this link.
once compiled and installed successfully, enable the rtmp module to be loaded automatically by freeswitch.
Uncomment by removing the "<!--" and "-->"
Save and exit from the file after uncommenting.
Goto FreeSwitch console.
It will print lots of output lines on console. Once loaded successfully edit the module settings to your choice.
I didn't need to change anything so I just simply reviewed the rtmp.conf.xml file and exited.
Now, time to copy the web-phone from the source directory to the web root.
Now we need to edit the html file and change one small thing there.
We need to change the rtmp url to that of our server's public IP.
http://193.195.196.193/flex/freeswitch.html
You;ll see a sample dialer. Login using your SIP credentials and if asked for allowing the browser to use your webcam/microphone/speaker accept it.
After successful login you should be able to make calls given the context your user is assigned to is configured likewise.

root@FS_HA1#cd /usr/src/freeswitch
root@FS_HA1#make mod_rtmp && make mod_rtmp install
once compiled and installed successfully, enable the rtmp module to be loaded automatically by freeswitch.
root@FS_HA1#cd /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/
root@FS_HA1#vim modules.conf.xml
Uncomment by removing the "<!--" and "-->"
<load module="mod_rtmp"/>
Save and exit from the file after uncommenting.
Goto FreeSwitch console.
root@FS_HA1#fs_cli
Since my freeswitch was already started so to load RTMP module either I
need to restart my Freeswitch server or I can just load the module from
the console just like this.freeswitch@internal> load mod_rtmp
It will print lots of output lines on console. Once loaded successfully edit the module settings to your choice.
root@FS_HA1#cd /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/
root@FS_HA1#vim rtmp.conf.xml
I didn't need to change anything so I just simply reviewed the rtmp.conf.xml file and exited.
Now, time to copy the web-phone from the source directory to the web root.
root@FS_HA1#cd /usr/src/freeswitch/clients/
root@FS_HA1#cp -rf flex/ /var/www/html/
Now we need to edit the html file and change one small thing there.
root@FS_HA1#vim /var/www/html/flex/freeswitch.html
We need to change the rtmp url to that of our server's public IP.
var flashvars = { rtmp_url: 'rtmp://193.195.196.193/phone' };
Save and exit, now open your browser and type down this URL.http://193.195.196.193/flex/freeswitch.html
