+### 1. Install RPM package with dependencies
+--------------------------------------------
+
+# RPM package should install necessary dependencies automatically
+# Check that the PHP version is 5.4 or higher
+
+yum install flexisip-account-manager-1.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm
+
+### 2. Configure Apache server
+------------------------------
+
+# Edit factory apache configuration file and replace the following parameters with the correct values:
+# ServerName, ServerAdmin, ErrorLog, CustomLog, SSLCertificateFile, SSLCertificateKeyFile
+# Copy this file to the configuration folder of the apache server with a new name
+
+cp /etc/flexisip-account-manager/apache.conf /etc/httpd/conf.d/flexisip-account-manager.conf
+
+# If your apache server is brand new you might need to add a ServerName in httpd.conf
+# Start the apache server with the root user
+
+systemctl start httpd
+
+# If the httpd service doesn't start properly it might be a log folder permission issue
+# Check that httpd can write logs in destination folder, if not you can use /var/log/httpd
+
+### 3. Install and setup MySQL database
+---------------------------------------
+
+# Install the mariadb-server package and start the mariadb service
+
+yum install mariadb-server
+systemctl start mariadb
+
+# Configure the newly installed mariadb server
+# When asked for root password press Enter and create a new root password
+
+mysql_secure_installation
+
+# Create a database and a user with the rights to read and write
+# Replace <user> and <password> in the following command
+
+mysql -u root -p
+create database flexisip;
+grant all on flexisip.* to <username>@'localhost' identified by '<password>';
+flush privileges;
+exit
+
+### 4. Configure XMLRPC server
+------------------------------
+
+# The RPM package has installed XMLRPC configuration files in /etc/flexisip-account-manager/
+# Edit these files with the correct values
+
+vim /etc/flexisip-account-manager/xmlrpc.conf
+vim /etc/flexisip-account-manager/internationalization.conf
+
+# Create the necessary tables in the database using our script
+
+cd /opt/belledonne-communications/share/flexisip-account-manager
+php xmlrpc.php create_tables
+php xmlrpc.php create_algo_table
+
+# For remote provisioning create a default.rc file on /opt/belledonne-communications/ and set the values you want
+# Client side, set the provisioning uri to the same host but to provisioning.php instead of xmlrpc.php
+
+### 5. Miscellaneous
+--------------------
+
+# To install OVH SMS PHP API create composer.json in /opt/belledonne-communications/
+
+echo '{ "name": "XMLRPC SMS API", "description": "XMLRPC SMS API", "require": { "ovh/php-ovh-sms": "dev-master" } }' > /var/www/html/composer.json
+
+# Then execute the following command
+
+cd /opt/belledonne-communications && composer install
+
+# If you have not installed an OVH SMS API you might need to comment out the following lines in xmlrpc-sms.php
+
+require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
+use \Ovh\Sms\SmsApi;
+
+# if SELinux forbids mail sending you can try this command
+
+setsebool -P httpd_can_sendmail=1
+
+# On CentOS firewalld might be running:
+firewall-cmd --state
+
+# If it is running you can add a rule to allow https traffic
+firewall-cmd --zone public --permanent --add-port=444/tcp && firewall-cmd --reload
+
+# If you use the standard https port (443) or http (80) the following command might be better
+firewall-cmd --zone public --permanent --add-service={http,https} && firewall-cmd --reload
+
+# Also it can listen on IPv6 only
+# To fix that, edit the ssl.conf in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ dir and add/set: Listen 0.0.0.0:444 https
