Configuration through a Central Server
The HT813 can be automatically configured from a central provisioning system.
When HT813 boots up, it will send TFTP, FTP/FTPS or HTTP/HTTPS requests to download configuration
files, “cfg000b82xxxxxx” and “cfg00082xxxxxx.xml”, where “000b82xxxxxx” is the LAN MAC address of the
HT813
. If the download of “cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx.xml” is not successful, the provision program will issue request
a generic configuration file “cfg.xml”. Configuration file name should be in lower case letters. The
configuration data can be downloaded via TFTP, FTP/FTPS or HTTP/HTTPS from the central server. A
service provider or an enterprise with large deployment of HT813 can easily manage the configuration and
service provisioning of individual devices remotely from a central server.
Grandstream provides a central provisioning system GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System)
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 it will be
redirected to customer’s TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS server for further provisioning. Grandstream also provides
configuration tools (Windows and Linux/Unix version) to facilitate the task of generating device configuration
files.
The Grandstream configuration tools are free to end users. The configuration tools and configuration
templates are available for download from
