CONFIGURATION FILE DOWNLOAD
Grandstream SIP Devices can be configured via the Web Interface as well as via a Configuration File
(binary or XML) 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 device boots up or reboots, it will issue a request for a configuration file
“cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx”, where “xxxxxxxxxxxx” is the MAC address of the device, i.e., “cfg000b820102ab”. In
addition, device will also requests a XML configuration file
“cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx.xml”. If the download of
“cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx.xml” is not successful, the provision program will request a generic “cfg.xml”.
Configuration file name should be in lower case letters.
