miniSIPServer is a SIP pbx server developed by a Chinese-based company for nearly 10 years, with an extremely easy-to-use interface that can run in either Windows, Linux or Raspberry Pi environments. Because it has a visual interface, you can set up an IP pbx very quickly (in less than 1 hour). Another feature is that you can use it for 30 days without the need for a paid license. This makes it especially ideal for creating fast test environments. In this article I will explain how to install miniSIPServer in Linux (Debian / Ubuntu) environments.

miniSIPServer Setup

As I said before, installation is very simple. Install Debian or Ubuntu operating system with a desktop interface and make network connections, then install the relevant libraries. You can then download and install miniSIPServer from myvoipapp.com. You can find these steps in detail below:

After the installation completes, you can find the application in the /opt/sipserver/ folder. You can also use the Internet -> miniSIPServer link in your linux desktop interface to run the application.
