Summary

We should now have a full understanding of what is required in order to build a 3CX Phone System. In this chapter, we looked at the hardware and operating system requirements and how to get the 3CX download at http://www.3cx.com/ phone-system/download-phone-system.html. Finally, we learned how to install the 3CX system, making sure that things were running correctly by checking up on 3CX's status.

In the next chapter, we will connect softphone and hardphone extensions to 3CX and test to make sure they are working. We will log in to the extension portal to see the status of the extension and learn how users can change some information about themselves. We will also explore some of the more advanced extension configuration options, such as voicemail and call forwarding rules.
