In the connection settings of TIM Enterprise, enter the address that your 3CX is bound to, as well as the same port you configured on your 3CX (above).

Firewall

Ensure that any firewalls on the 3CX and on the computer running TIM Enterprise allow traffic on the selected port.

In order to test whether the connection is working, use `telnet`:

Code Block

telnet 10.0.0.10 9000

If you don't have the Telnet client on your computer, you can add it through the Optional Features setting in Windows.

Failing that, TIM Enterprise comes with a stand-alone tool name `IPTester.exe` in your `c:\Program Files (x86)\Tri-Line\TIM Enterprise\` folder for testing connections.  Double-click to run it, enter the IP address and port of your 3CX in the top left boxes and press
