  5. Configure network settings for the server.

    • IP Address: Specify an IP address for this server, which will also serve as the IP address for the PBX.
      • To assign a new IP address, retain the default value Assign New IP.
      • To assign an existing IP address, click the drop-down list and select the desired IP address.
    • Server Hostname & Label: Specify a host name and a label to help you identify this server.
  6. Click Deploy Now.

    The server status shows Running, indicating that the Vultr server is successfully deployed with Yeastar P-Series Software Edition installed.

Step 2. Set up network connection for Yeastar P-Series Software Edition

To enable the PBX to communicate with the Internet, you need to access the web portal of Yeastar P-Series Software Edition to set up network connection.
  1. Obtain the public IP address of your Yeastar P-Series Software Edition.

    1. On Vultr, go to Products > Compute.
    2. Copy the IP address of the server where the PBX is installed.
      Note: The IP address of the Vultr server is the public IP address of the PBX.
  2. Open a web browser, paste the public IP address of the PBX in the address bar, then press Enter.

    You will access the PBX web portal and enter the installation wizard of Yeastar P-Series Software Edition.

  3. In the LAN section, select DHCP, then click Next.

  4. In the pop-up window, click Yes to reboot the system and apply the setting.
    Note: The reboot process may take a few minutes. During this time, you will NOT be able to access the PBX.
  5. After the reboot is complete, re-access the PBX web portal via its public IP address and click Next.
  6. In the pop-up window, click Ignore Issue(s).

    Note: This LAN connection issue is caused by the difference between the network settings of Vultr and PBX, which does NOT affect the usage of the PBX.

    By default, Vultr assigns the public IP address to the server's first virtual network interface. However, since the PBX's first virtual network interface is configured as internal interface, we bound the public IP address to it for PBX to communicate with the Internet, which results in abnormal LAN network detection.
