How to change FreeSWITCH event socket password?
- mod_event_socket is TCP-based interface to control FreeSWITCH.
- ASTPP is using it to get live information from FreeSWTICH command line to GUI and commanding FreeSWITCH from GUI.
- FreeSWITCH command line interface connection is password protected. Default password is 'ClueCon', you may change it by modifying event_socket.conf.xml configuration.
- The default path of this configuration file is /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/event_socket.conf.xmll
- In there modify the password value.
- <param name="password" value="Your_P@assword"/>
- After modifying the configuration, need to reload mod_event_socket to get this affected. To do that execute below Linux terminal based command.
- fs_cli -pClueCon -x'reload mod_event_socket'
The successful reload will respond,
# fs_cli -pClueCon -x'reload mod_event_socket' +OK Job-UUID: f9c36a7f-1a90-41cd-94d4-d516ace03213
- Now Interface access will only be through updated password instead of default 'ClueCon' password.
