Hi,

I'm a CUCM expert and I want to expand my knowledge in PBX administration. I've decided to teach myself Mitel MX-One.
I've found a used MX One Compact PBX, however, the seller does not have the admin credentials.
Before I commit to buy:
1. Assuming I have physical access to the PBX, is there an easy way to reset the password?
2. How can I get the admin manuals? As opposed to Cisco and Avaya, Mitel site does allow you to download the manuals...

Tnx
Benami
 
You need the root passsword and you need to check it’s licensed. If not you’re buying a piece of tin of little value,

Not really worthless. Assuming it is a TSE (server based) and not a TSW (MD110) then you can use it to learn on if and it's a big if, you have access to the installation software. After installation, you get an open license for a limited period during which you can use it to learn with. When the license period expires, re-install the software that's how we used to run our training department.

Make sure you can get the installation software before committing to buy.
 
Why bother? If you can get the installation software just build a VM, you don’t need the box

VM sounds like a good idea. Is there a way to get a virtual appliance for training only purpose?
 
Hi Benami,
first a little question, are you a Mitel Partner ?
You will also need the documentation for the MX-ONE, called CPI (600Mb)
This can be downloaded from a FTP-Server, but for partners only, as far as I know.
Virtual appliance is also downloadable from this FTP-server.

Hi Morbert,

Unfortunately we are currently not a Mitel partner. We develop tools for CUCM and I was given the charter to explore Mitel MX-One as a potential expansion of our offering.
It is petty that Mitel keeps the documentation to partners only. I do not understand the reason. All the major players (Cisco, Avaya, Unify etc.) have the documentation freely available.
This practice render my task as almost undoable.
Any ideas how I can learn more about the platform?

Best,
Benami
 
Hi,
I think the only one way to get the whished Information is to contact MITEL.


On this page you can find the contact for your region.
best regards,
Norbert
