The full documentation portal (docs.linuxpbx.com) launches with v1.0 GA. Here's the quick-start path in the meantime.
Run the installer on a supported distro or bring up the Docker Compose stack — see Download. Log in with the admin account it creates.
The dashboard's "Getting started" checklist walks you through it: create a tenant, add extensions, connect a trunk, route your number.
Point any SIP phone or softphone at your server with the extension number and the one-time password shown at creation.
Generate and deploy the telephony config from the dashboard, hit reload, and make a test call. Watch it appear under CDRs.
Create extensions one at a time or import hundreds from CSV with generated credentials.
Connect a SIP provider, route inbound DIDs to any destination, control outbound dialing with prefixes and failover.
Ring teams, hold callers with music, build auto-attendant menus, overflow anywhere.
Mailboxes with email delivery, *98 access, recording with protected playback and retention cleanup.
One-click backups from the UI, scheduled via cron, restore from the CLI.
Run the built-in Security Audit and fix findings; TLS, firewall and fail2ban guidance included in deployment docs.
