-WebRTC stands for “Web Real-Time Communications,” a technology focused on embedding real-time communications, such as voice, directly within web browsers.
-FreePBX system administrators can download the WebRTC module from within the FreePBX Module Admin, or check out this video that shows off some of the new features enabled by the WebRTC module.
Note:The WebRTC module still in beta that's why its NOT available yet in the FreePBX modules repository but the module can be installed on systems running Asterisk 11.5 (or higher) and FreePBX 2.11.0.11. For browsers, only Chrome is supported.
Download the WebRTC module from the " GIT " repository and set the proper permissions.
-Go to the "modules" directory and use the "git" command to install the WebRTC module and give the "asterisk" user & group the full control permission.
