In order to configure your device follow these steps:
a) From a computer's Internet browser enter the Spark CXS1000 IP address: http://10.10.10.10
b) You will be prompted to define a password for "administrator". Once you define a password you
will be able to connect to the web interface as user admin with password that you defined.
Now you can modify your Spark CXS1000 CompletePBX configuration.
The CompletePBX Reference Guide can be found on the Xorcom Web site.

Step 4: Protect CompletePBX Against Unauthorized Access

Once you have fully configured CompletePBX we highly recommend that you use the following
procedures and applications supported in CompletePBX to protect it against unauthorized access:

Change the Linux Password

The default password for the Linux root user is !x0rc0m!voip5472# It can be changed by using the
Linux command.
passwd

IP Protection

CompletePBX must be installed on a protected LAN and must not be directly connected to the public
Internet. The LAN must be protected by a Firewall/NAT router.

Intrusion Detection (fail2ban) and Firewall

In order to maximize protection from external threats, the fail2ban process is activated, in addition to
the internal firewall. Use the Admin|Security|Firewall and Admin|Security|Intrusion Detection dialogs
to modify the internal firewall and intrusion detection settings.

Powering Down the Unit

In cases where you elect to turn off the IP-PBX, press and hold the blue power button for less than 5
seconds for a graceful shutdown, and for more than 5 seconds for an immediate shutdown.

Unit Status LED (Light Emitting Diode) Indicators

The Spark CXS1000 is equipped with varying LED indicators on the front panel, depending on the
model.

Power Button Indicators

There are two LED indicators, each located on a different side of the blue Power On/Off button. The
one on the left indicates activity of the micro SD card and the one on the right indicates the power
status of the IP-PBX (blinking green during power-up, and steady green when ready for use).

Digital (BRI ISDN or E1/T1) Spark CXS1000 Models

Digital Spark CXS1000 models (models that have at least one digital ISDN BRI or E1/T1 port) have a
vertical array of four status indicators on the left side of the front panel (Fig 2).
