CONFIGURATION FILE DOWNLOAD
Grandstream SIP Devices can be configured via the Web Interface as well as via a Configuration File through
TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS. The “Config Server Path” is the TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS server path for the configuration
file. It needs to be set to a valid URL, either in FQDN or IP address format. The “Config Server Path” can be the
same or different from the “Firmware Server Path”.
A configuration parameter is associated with each particular field in the web configuration page. A parameter
consists of a Capital letter P and 2 to 3 (Could be extended to 4 in the future) digit numeric numbers. i.e., P2 is
associated with the “Admin Password” in the ADVANCED SETTINGS page. For a detailed parameter list,
please refer to the corresponding firmware release configuration template.
When a Grandstream Devices boots up or reboots, it will issue a request for a configuration file named
“cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx”, where “xxxxxxxxxxxx” is the LAN side MAC address of the device, i.e.,
“cfg000b820102ab”. The configuration file name should be in lower case letters.
