Wazo is a freely distributed software platform based on the Asterisk VoIP and telephony software, designed to provide IP PBX, unified messaging, instant messaging, and videoconferencing all in one solution. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install Wazo on your Linux Mint system:
Before you can install Wazo, you will need:
Start by updating your system packages to ensure you have the latest version of everything by executing the following command.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
Next, you will need to install some dependencies. To install, run the following command.
sudo apt install curl apt-transport-https dirmngr gnupg2 -y
Wazo is not available in the default Linux Mint repositories, so you need to add the Wazo repository to your system. Here's how:
Import the Wazo GPG key:
curl https://repo.wazo.community/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
Add the Wazo repository:
echo "deb https://repo.wazo.community/deb stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wazo.list
Update the repository to load any changes that have been made.
sudo apt update
To install Wazo, execute the following command:
sudo apt install wazo
If the installation process asks you any questions or prompts you to set up any configurations, you should answer them accordingly.
After the installation is done, start the Wazo service by running:
sudo systemctl start wazo
Congratulations! You now have Wazo installed on your Linux Mint system. You can now launch Wazo and start configuring it to suit your needs. If you face any problem, you can visit the Wazo community forum for step-by-step instructions or ask the developers for help.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
