PROVISIONING
OVERVIEW
Grandstream SIP Devices can be configured via Web interface as well as via configuration file through
TFTP/HTTP/HTTPS download. All Grandstream SIP devices support a proprietary binary format
configuration file and XML format configuration file. The UCM6510 provides a Plug and Play mechanism to
auto-provision the Grandstream SIP devices in a zero configuration manner by generating XML config file
and having the phone to download it within LAN area. This allows users to finish the installation with ease
and start using the SIP devices in a managed way.
To provision a phone, three steps are involved, i.e., discovery, configuration and provisioning. This section
explains how Zero Config works on the UCM6510. The settings for this feature can be accessed via Web
UI->PBX->Zero Config.
CONFIGURATION ARCHITECTURE FOR END POINT DEVICE
The end point device configuration in Zero Config is divided into the following three layers with priority from
the lowest to the highest:
• Global
This is the lowest layer. Users can configure the most basic options that could apply to all Grandstream
SIP devices during provisioning via Zero Config.
• Model
In this layer, users can define model-specific options for the configuration template.
• Device
This is the highest layer. Users can configure device-specific options for the configuration for individual
device here.
Each layer also has its own structure in different levels. Please see figure below. The details for each layer
are explained in sections [GLOBAL CONFIGURATION] , [MODEL CONFIGURATION] and [DEVICE
CONFIGURATION] .
