Installation steps

Installation Steps

Internet should be available on the machine where the application is being installed and connections on port 9242 should be allowed in the network firewall to carry out the installation steps.

All the commands start with a # indicating that root user privileges are required to execute these commands. Trailing # is not a part of the command.

There are two types of installation 1. EFCX and 2. Cisco (UCCX & UCCE). As for EFCX most of the steps are not required as Keycloak, JtapiConnector, Active Mq, Mixer are not required for EFCX.

Allow ports in the firewall

If there is an active firewall, allow the following ports.

443/tcp 444/tcp 8088/tcp 5060/tcp (only for Cisco) 16386-32768/udp (only for Cisco)

Installation Steps

  1. Please make sure that Solution Prerequisites are met for the desired deployment type. 

  2. Download the deployment script  and place it in the user’s home or any desired directory. This script will:

    1. delete the recording-solution directory if it exists.

    2. clone the required files for deployment

  3. To execute the script, give it the execute permissions and execute it. This command will clone the skeleton project for the recording solution. the recording-solution directory contains all the required files for deployment.

    $ chmod 755 deployment.sh $ ./deployment.sh
  4. Follow step 5 to 8 for deployment with Cisco UCCX or UCCE

  5. Follow this guide to install and configure Freeswitch. The recording path should be /usr/share/freeswitch/cucmRecording

  6. Follow this guide to create an application user on CUCM for jtapi-connector.

  7. Open recording-solution/docker/config.env and update the environment variables given below.
