When you run make, it compiles the binaries in the src directory. Once it is done compiling stop asterisk. Running make install will copy the compiled binaries into their respective folders on your system. Then just start asterisk. If you need to revert, stop asterisk, run make install in the old src directory, then start asterisk.
