Grandstream SIP Devices can be configured via the Web Interface as well as via a Configuration File
(binary or XML) through TFTP, FTP/FTPS or HTTP/HTTPS. The "Config Server Path" is the TFTP,
FTP/FTPS or HTTP/HTTPS server path for the configuration file.
It needs to be set to a valid URL, either in FQDN or IP address format. The "Config Server Path" can be
the same or different from the "Firmware Server Path".
A configuration parameter is associated with each field in the web configuration page. A parameter consists
of a Capital letter P and 2 to 5-digit numeric numbers. i.e., P2 is associated with the "New Password" in the
Web GUI→System Settings→Security Settings → User Info Management → Admin Password. For
a detailed parameter list, please refer to the corresponding configuration template.
When the GRP260x series boots up or reboots, it will issue a request to download an XML file named
"cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx.xml", where "xxxxxxxxxxxx" is the MAC address of the phone, i.e., "cfg000b820102ab"
and "cfg000b820102ab.xml". If the download of "cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx.xml" file is not successful followed by a
configuration file named "cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx", the phone will issue a request to download a specific model
configuration file “cfg<model>.xml”, where <model> is the phone model, i.e., “cfggrp2601.xml” for the
GRP2601, “cfgrp2602” for the GRP2602, “cfgrp2603” for the GRP2603 and “cfgrp2604” for the GRP2604.
If this file is not available, the phone will issue a request to download the generic “cfg.xml” file. The
configuration file name should be in lower case letters, If not found, the phone will request a file named
“dev[MacAddress].cfg” where "MacAddress" is the MAC address of the device, With this provision file, users
are able to provision the device with both Pvalues and aliases.
