3CX will not respond to comments on YouTube. Kindly direct your queries and any feedback onto the 3CX forum:

At 6:50 there's a bit of info about the FQDN and links to an article URL. Is it link on the 3cx website? Also if choosing a 3CX-managed domain, would you always choose local IP there? Am confused about FQDN as you've already set an FQDN in an earlier step. I think you could explain that better instead of skipping over it.

9:26 3CX updated to reset password page.. first

The only difference for me, is i get to the reset page, but "link is invalid or expired". 3CX forums tell me the link is valid for 24 hours. so unless its a browser issue, i'm not sure where else to go from here. They keep telling me to rest and new
password, but how can i reset if i can't login ? I like the old method that directed you straight to Management.. That always worked.


FYI. i noticed you used FQDN in link... for me that does not work .. I have to replace that with my local ip, otherwise page not found, Am i just missing something ? No DNS server running, which is why i used local IP.

I have watched this 'basic' tutorial series. It's not very basic and I will have to watch this a few times, because there are a lot of unfamiliar terms which are glossed over quickly. Also pausing briefly after putting data in the various fields before immediately clicking on to the next page will help having to pause and rewind.

Why is virtual computer created before 3cx is installed?

What are the pros and cons of choosing 443 vs 5001? I'd have thought 443 would be better for a couple of reasons... 1) you don't have to put the :5001 in the URL and 2) on public access wifi, sometimes there's only a limited set of ports open like 53, 80, 443 and not much else. Maybe if someone has a dynamic IP and they use port 5001 to differentiate it from other 443 web browsing, but if static IP - just use the IP for QoS rules and not the port.
