Kamailio is a popular open-source SIP server that allows users to handle multiple VoIP protocols, including registration, authentication, and routing. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Kamailio on your Windows 11 machine.
Requirements
Before starting the installation, please make sure you have the following components:
Steps
- Open Git Bash as Administrator and navigate to the directory where you want to install Kamailio. Then, clone Kamailio from GitHub.
git clone https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio.git
- Next, navigate to the kamailio directory and execute the bootstrap.sh script to automatically generate the Makefile.
cd kamailio/
./scripts/bootstrap.sh
- Once the Makefile is generated, you need to configure Kamailio based on your requirements. By default, Kamailio is configured for a local installation with no external components. You can modify the configuration file (kamailio.cfg) to customize SIP routing and other settings.
make cfg
- After configuring Kamailio, run the following commands to compile the source code and install Kamailio.
make all
make install
- Kamailio should now be installed on your system. You can start the SIP server by running the following command.
kamailio -D
- To verify that Kamailio is running, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:5060. You should see Kamailio's default message, which indicates that the SIP server is running successfully.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Kamailio on your Windows 11 machine. You can now configure Kamailio to work with your VoIP provider and set up advanced routing rules to handle phone calls in your network.
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!
