Install Debian for 3CX

To install Debian for 3CX:

  1. Download the latest 3CX ISO.

  2. If you are using a hypervisor/virtualized OS, set the CD option to boot from the ISO and ensure the CD drive is set to connect on startup. If you are installing on a mini PC, then create a bootable image, plug it into one of the available Mini PC’s USB ports and set the BIOS to boot from the USB drive to start the installation.

  3. Boot your system with the downloaded 3CX ISO, select “Install” from the main boot screen and press the "Enter" key.

  1. Enter a hostname for the computer so you can easily identify it on your network, using the characters 'a' to 'z', numbers '0' to '9' and the '-' character.
