press save to apply the new settings and reboot the device for upgrading.

or the FQDN (URL) of the upgrade server and choose to upgrade via TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS. Save the
changes and reboot the unit.
At this moment, the LCD will display the progress of the software download/upgrade. Please do not disrupt
or power down the unit.
NOTE: The software upgrade will last up to 5 minutes (through the LAN side) and may take longer when
upgrading through the Internet (limited by the network bandwidth). Grandstream recommends
downloading and upgrading the software in a controlled LAN environment.
NO LOCAL TFTP SERVERS
For users without a local TFTP server, Grandstream offers a NAT-friendly TFTP server. This enables users
to download the latest software upgrades for their phone via this server. Please refer to the webpage:

.
Alternatively, users can download a free TFTP or HTTP server and conduct a local firmware upgrade. A
free windows version TFTP server is available for download from
