Cant login to 3CX Admin control panel

Hi

I am getting the below when attempting to log into my manage console -

Login access denied. Too many incorrect login attempts. Try later or contact the Administrator.

I've read this is because the IP is blacklisted.

Due to the way our internal network/firewall ect is setup changing the IP is not really an option (not without a lot of work)

Is there any way to disable/bypass this from the command line?

You can not bypass it from the command line,

Access the management console via a different IP address range (internal or external wan) , you will be able to remove the blacklist

You can access the web console from the same machine 3CX is installed on.
I'd consider whitelisting an IP going forward.

Its installed on a Linux Server VM, so no GUI.

It seems like a bit of a design flaw, I'd have to change the whole way our internal network works just to get around this.

Is there no way of going into the database and deleting the entry?

Unofficially, I would first take a snapshot.

Install the desktop experience using PuTTY to SSH to VM

tasksel

Create new user to log in to VM

adduser <username>

Should get you to the desktop to use firefox to web access 3CX.

I have desktop experience installed on some of my VMs as it makes accessing recordings and such easier.
