 chmod 755 fsg729-xxx-installer 
 ./fsg729-xxx-installer

 usr/local/freeswitch/bin/validator

 G.729AB licencing tool   

 You will require one or more sales codes to activate G.729AB
 Enter a sales code, or a blank line to end: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 Enter a sales code, or a blank line to end:

 Sales codes to be activated:
 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 OK (Y/N)? y
 Success. The file licences.zip contains valid licence(s)
 for G.729A. Unzip this to /etc/freeswitch/


The file license.zip is now in the current directory.  Unzip this into /etc/freeswitch/:
 mv licences.zip /etc/freeswitch/
 cd /etc/freeswitch/
 unzip licences.zip
 Archive:  licences.zip   
   inflating: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.conf

  Please back this xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.conf as you do NOT need to re-validate your license once you have this signed file.
  

* Configure FreeSWITCH
It is not necessary to stop FreeSWITCH in order to add the new codec, however you must make sure that mod_g729 is not loaded.
Launch fs_cli and issue the command "unload mod_g729":
 /usr/local/freeswitch/bin/fs_cli
 unload mod_g729

Load the new g729 module:
 load mod_com_g729
Output will look like this:
 freeswitch@internal> load mod_com_g729
 +OK

/codecs/mod_com_g729

The g729 license installation and configuration is now complete.


Remember this license is locked to a specific machine.
