3CX Inspector Version Support

Liongard's 3CX Inspector does not currently support V20 3CX systems. We look forward to supporting V20 in the near future and will update this page accordingly.

Inspector Description

The 3CX Inspector returns data for 3CX instances. This data includes:

• Phones and Extensions
• Security Events
• Maximum SIM calls/Trunk
• Maximum SIM calls/License
• Recordings Database Usage & Alerts
• Billing and Licensing

Inspector Setup Preparation

You will need the URL for your 3CX instance. Your 3CX URL must resolve to a 3CX host with a valid, globally trusted TLS/SSL certificate. Using self-signed certificates can result in failed inspections.

📘

Certification Check

Using a third-party certificate check tool such as www.sslshopper.com/ssl-check.html can help identify when a certificate is missing. If the certificate is not trusted, partners may need to install an intermediate/chain certificate or link the URL to a trusted root certificate.

Liongard Inspector Setup

Individual Inspector Setup

In Liongard, navigate to Admin > Inspectors > Inspector Types > Navigate to the 3CX Inspector > Select Add System.

Fill in the following information:

• Environment: Select the Environment this System Inspector should be associated with

• Friendly Name: Suggested "3CX [Environment Name]"

• Agent: Select the On-premises Agent installed for this Environment

• Inspector Version: Latest

• Instance URL: Your 3CX Instance URL (ex: "https://3cx.example.com")

  • Note: You must include the "HTTPS" prefix in your URL. Do not include a trailing forward-slash as this will break the Inspector. Also, if your 3CX instance is hosted on-premises, then you will need to add the port number to the end of the URL. 5001 is the default port. Example: https://example.3cx.com:5001

• Username: 3CX Admin Account (Default: "Admin")

• Password: 3CX Admin Account Password

• Scheduling: The Inspector will default to run once a day at the time the Inspector is set up. Here you can adjust the schedule.

Select Save. The Inspector will now be triggered to run within the minute.
