Change the IP address (optional)
If needed, change the IP address of your appliance so that it matches the
address scheme of your local area network (LAN). At the Elastix web user
interface go to: System
Network , here you can configure the global
network parameters of your appliance as well as the individual parameters of
each of the 3 network interfaces (Note: interfaces 2 and 3 will be listed after
having connecting them to your switch or router). We recommend the use of
an static IP address. (Figure 3)

Connect your appliance to your LAN’s switch/router. If needed, reconfigure
your PC/laptop’s network interface card IP address settings back to how they
were before step 4

Configure telephony dial plan rules, virtual fax devices, email service, and
other options. Enjoy your Unified Communications Appliance!

Restoring back to the default installation
Please follow the steps described below if you find yourself wanting to have your
miniUCS restored back to a clean/default installation:
1.
Remove the CompactFlash (CF) memory card from inside the miniUCS and
insert it in a card reader on a Linux PC or laptop
2.
Take note of the device that represents the CF:
fdisk –l | grep GB
(it would be the device which size is close to 16 GB)
For this example we will assume the CF card was assigned as /dev/sdb
3.
Unmount all partitions that were automatically mounted (if applicable), for
example /dev/sdb1, /dev/sdb2, etcétera :
umount /dev/sdb1
umount /dev/sdb2
.
.
.
etc.
4.
Download the image:
wget "http://www.elastix.org/Elastix23miniUCS.img"
5.
Write the image to the CF:
dd if=Elastix24miniUCS.img of=/dev/sdb
6.
Remove the card from the reader and insert it back in the miniUCS’ CF slot
