Script Assist

A remote-site health check says the SBC is online, but 3CX v20 registrations are drifting long before users notice.

Use this when standard monitoring stays green and the voice path needs deeper registration, latency, or packet-loss probes.

Situation

Start from the failing condition, not the loudest symptom.

Use this when standard monitoring stays green and the voice path needs deeper registration, latency, or packet-loss probes. Treat the visible error as the end of the chain and work backward until the first dependency that actually moved is obvious.

What To Verify

Separate healthy dependencies from the one that actually broke.

  • Capture one failing path, one known-good path, and the exact change window before touching configuration.
  • Confirm SBC state from both the control plane and an affected workload so you are not troubleshooting a cached or partial view.
  • Confirm Monitoring state from both the control plane and an affected workload so you are not troubleshooting a cached or partial view.
  • Confirm Automation state from both the control plane and an affected workload so you are not troubleshooting a cached or partial view.
  • Record which dependency actually moved first: identity, name resolution, transport, policy, or runtime state.
Working Sequence

Recover the path without widening the blast radius.

  • Prove the break is centered in SBC before editing the next layer down the dependency chain.
  • Correct the narrowest failing state first, then retest from the same path that originally failed.
  • Re-register, reload, or restart only the component tied to Monitoring rather than stacking broad changes together.
  • Validate with a second client, site, or node so the fix is not limited to one warm cache or one host.
  • Capture the final health evidence and the triggering condition so the next incident starts from facts instead of memory.
GUI Locations

Go straight to the 3CX screens that actually own this change.

Use these paths as the fastest starting points in the 3CX v20 interface before you widen the search into network or host layers.

  • Web Client > switch to Admin Console for system-wide telephony changes, trunks, users, call handling, and integrations.
  • Admin Console > Users > select the user > General, IP Phone, BLFs, Rights, Voicemail, View, or Options.
  • Admin Console > Voice & Chat > + Add SBC, then return to Users > IP Phone to bind phones through that SBC.
  • Admin Console > Advanced > Call Flow Apps for call-processing scripts, CFD packages, and app-level routing logic.
