CONFIGURATIONTHROUGHACENTRALSERVER
Grandstream HT502 can be automatically configured from a central provisioning system.
When HT502 boot up, it will send TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS request to download configuration file,
“cfg000b82xxxxxx” or “cfg00082xxxxxx.xml”, where “000b82xxxxxx” is the LAN MAC address of the
HT502. It will first request “cfg000b82xxxxxx” then “cfg000b82xxxxxx.xml”
The configuration file can be downloaded via TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS from the central server. A service
provider or an enterprise with large deployment of HT502 can easily manage the configuration and
service provisioning of individual devices remotely from a central server.
Grandstream has a provisioning system called GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System) that
is used to support automated configuration of Grandstream devices. GAPS uses enhanced (NAT friendly)
TFTP or HTTP (thus no NAT issues) and other communication protocols to communicate with each
individual Grandstream device for firmware upgrade, remote reboot, etc.
Grandstream provides GAPS service to VoIP service providers. Use GAPS for either simple redirection
or with certain special provisioning settings. At boot-up, Grandstream devices by default point to
Grandstream provisioning server GAPS, based on the unique MAC address of each device, GAPS
provision the devices with redirection settings so that they will be redirected to customer’s TFTP or
HTTP/HTTPS server for further provisioning.
Grandstream also provides a configuration tool to facilitate the task of generating device configuration
files. The Grandstream configuration tool is free to end users. The tool and configuration templates are
available for download from http://www.grandstream.com/support/tools
