OVERVIEW OF FUNCTIONS 

 

Grandstream GRP Carrier-Grade IP Phones supports Busy Lamp Filed (BLF) feature. GRP26XX supports 

this feature by changing the color and status of the MPK indicators, associated with the monitored users. 

GRP26XX phones support this feature by changing the LED keys color and status on the MPKs on phone 

body. Additionally, the phone system is also able to pick up the calls to the monitored extensions. 

CONFIGURATION VIA WEB BROWSER 

GRP26XX  embedded  Web  server  responds  to  HTTP/HTTPS  GET/POST  requests.  Embedded  HTML 

pages  allow  a  user  to configure  the  IP  phone  through  a Web  browser  such  as  Google  Chrome, Mozilla 
Firefox, … 

 

To access the Web GUI:   

 

1. 

Connect the computer to the same network as the phone; 

2. 

Make sure the phone is turned on and shows its IP address. You may check the IP address from the 
phone’s keypad menu under 

Status => Network Status

;   

3. 

Open a Web browser on your computer;   

4. 

Enter the phone’s IP address in the address bar of the browser;   

5. 

Enter the administrator’s login and password to access the Web Configuration Menu 

 

Notes: 

 

 

The computer has to be connected to the same sub-network as the phone. This can be easily done by 

connecting  the  computer  to  the  same  hub  or  switch  as  the  phone  connected  to.  In  absence  of  a 

hub/switch (or free ports on the hub/switch), please connect the computer directly to the PC port on 

the back of the phone; 

 

 

If the phone is properly connected to a working Internet connection, the IP address of the phone will 

display in MENU->Status->Network Status. This address has the format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx 

stands for a number from 0-255. Users will need this number to access the Web GUI. For example, if 

the phone has IP address 192.168.40.154, please enter "http://192.168.40.154" in the address bar of 

the browser;
