Create the $FREESWITCH_PARAMS file for extra parameters. If freeswitch was installed from RPM this will probably already exist.

Enable services
systemctl daemon-reload systemctl enable mariadb systemctl enable httpd systemctl enable memcached systemctl enable freeswitch systemctl restart memcached systemctl restart httpd systemctl restart freeswitch
Reboot and browse to the public IP address of the server
http://xx.xx.xx.xx
to complete the install using the following:
Username: superadmin (or whatever you want)
Password: somepassword (use whatever you want)

It will take several minutes to complete. Post install tasks are mandatory.
Post Install
Lock down MySQL
mysql_secure_installation systemctl restart mariadb
Answer Y to everything.
Enable freeswitch database connection
This optional configuration sets Freeswitch to use mysql instead of sqlite for storing internal data.
nano +147 /etc/freeswitch/autoload_configs/switch.conf.xml
<param name="core-db-dsn" value="freeswitch:fusionpbx:somepassword" />
systemctl restart freeswitch
Change Voicemail to Email app configuration
nano +119 /etc/freeswitch/autoload_configs/switch.conf.xml
<param name="mailer-app" value="/usr/bin/php /var/www/html/secure/v_mailto.php"/>
<param name="mailer-app-args" value="-t"/>systemctl restart freeswitch
Configure firewall
yum -y install firewalld
systemctl enable firewalld
systemctl start firewalld

TFTP
If you plan to use hardware SIP phones you may want to set up TFTP provisioning.
yum -y install tftp-server nano /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
change server_args = -s /var/lib/tftpboot
to server_args = -s /tftpboot
change disable=yes
to disable=no
mkdir /tftpboot chmod 777 /tftpboot systemctl restart xinetd
firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-port=69/udp firewall-cmd --reload
Now go to GUI Advanced > Default Settings > Provision. About 20 rows down set enabled = True.
Add a new Subcategory in Provision category by pressing the + icon and fill in as follows:
Category = provision Subcategory = path type = text Value = /tftpboot Enabled = True
