The Elastix – the reliable PBX appliance software.

Elastix is an open source Unified Communications Server software that brings together IP PBX, email, IM, faxing and collaboration functionality. It has Web interface and includes capabilities such as a Call Center software with predictive dialing.

The Elastix functionality is based on open source projects as Asterisk, HylaFAX, Openfire and Postfix. The CentOS distributive is used as the base for Elastix platform.

Asterisk is software that turns an ordinary computer into a voice communications server. Asterisk is the world’s most powerful and popular telephony development tool-kit. It is used by small businesses, large businesses, call centers, carriers and governments worldwide.

HylaFAX is an enterprise-class system for sending and receiving facsimiles as well as for sending alpha-numeric pages.

Openfire is a real time collaboration (RTC) server licensed under the Open Source GPL. It uses the only widely adopted open protocol for instant messaging, XMPP (also called Jabber). Openfire is incredibly easy to setup and administer, but offers rock-solid security and performance.

Postfix is Wietse Venema’s mailer that started life at IBM research as an alternative to the widely-used Sendmail program.

CentOS is an Enterprise-class Linux Distribution derived from sources freely provided to the public by a prominent North American Enterprise Linux vendor. .

    This is missing the Unembedded freePBX password.

    I think it would be a good idea to publish how to change FreePBX password as it is enabled by default and the password is way too simple, just changing the Elastix admin password is not enough since it is not needed to get into FreePBX.
