Hello guys, we’re going to do Asterisk 13.0.6 installation in this guide. This will be a complete easy to follow tutorial. For recent release of Asterisk, check out How to Install Asterisk 15 PBX on CentOS 7. So let’s start by defining what a PBX and Asterisk is?
What Is a PBX?
Asterisk, first and foremost, is a Private Branch Exchange. A PBX is a piece of equipment that handles telephone switching owned by a private business, rather than a telephone company. A PBX can be thought of as a private phone switchboard, connecting to one or more telephones on one side and usually connecting to one or more telephone lines on the other.
What is Asterisk?
Asterisk is a complete PBX. It implements all the major features of most commercially available PBXes. It also implements, for free, features that often cost a lot in a commercial installation: Conference calling, Direct Inward System Access, Call Parking, and Call Queues, just to name a few.
The basic features provided by Asterisk are:
- Caller ID
- Blacklisting (Block callers by Caller ID)
- Call Waiting
- Call Transfer
- Call Conferencing
- Conference Center/Bridging
- Do‐Not‐Disturb
- Call Forwarding
- Call Parking
- Call Detail Reporting
- Dial by Name Directory
- Interactive Voice Response (Auto Attendant)
- Time Condition Call Routing
- Call Queuing
- Call Back
- Hold Music/Recordings (MP3)
- Application Integration
- Extended Call Reporting
- DISA (Direct Inward System Access)
- Dictation
- Follow Me
