You can use the following command:

fs_cli -x "shutdown"

I'm new to freeswitch and just installed it on debian (stretch). I'm unable to stop the service using this command. If I do shutdown freeswitch start with another process id. – Yasiru G Jun 07 '19 at 07:19

I think that is because you start freeswitch via systemd and when systemd recognized that the process is not not there it relaunches it. If that is the case, you can start/stop freeswitch via systemd by "sudo systemctl start freeswitch" and "sudo systemctl stop freeswitch". – markus Jun 16 '19 at 16:26

This will only show the current channels, not shutting down freeswitch. – markus Jul 19 '19 at 12:44
