3CX Phone System for Windows System for Windows
Page 18
After the Wizard has completed, you can connect to the 3CX Phone System Management
Console by clicking on the management console short cut in the 3CX Phone System
program group.
To connect to the management console from a remote machine, start a web browser and
enter the name of the machine on which 3CX Phone System is installed, followed by
‘Management’. (For example: http://phone-system/Management) If you are using Cassini,
you have to append the port number, 5481. For example http://phone-system/:5481
Upgrading from a previous version of 3CX Phone System
It is possible to upgrade a 3CX Phone System 6.1 installation to version 7 as follows:
1.
Before uninstalling version 6.1, backup your current configuration using the backup
and restore tool located in the 3CX program group.
2.
Uninstall version 6 using Add/Remove programs.
3.
Install 3CX Phone System v7 and run the configuration wizard.
4.
Restore your version 6 configuration using the backup and restore tool located in the
3CX program group.
5.
If you are using IIS (recommended), after the upgrade you must go into each
extension and click ‘save’. This will recreate the provisioning file, which needs to be
updated because the URL changed. Also you will need to URL to the provisioning
server in each phone. You can either do this manually for each phone according to
the configuration guide, or automatically using ‘option 66’ in your DHCP server. See
this URL for a configuration guide http://www.3cx.com/sip-phones/DHCP-option-
66.html
Note:
DIDs & bridges created in version v6 are not restored in v7. These need to be re-
created.
Upgrades of version 3.1, 5, 6.0 configurations are not supported. In these cases,
make a backup of your old configuration. Install v6.1 on to a separate machine, do
a restore it and then a backup. Then restore that 6.1 backup to v7.
Upgrades from any V7 BETA version are not supported.
