When working with VOIP, it’s helpful to have Asterisk server on the development machine. Asterisk server is Digium’s software implementation of PBX (private branching exchange), which provides features like voice calls, video and voice conferencing, and messaging. This blog entry details how to set up and apply basic configuration to an Asterisk on an Ubuntu virtual machine.
