Updating the Grandstream firmware
This procedure is only required if you need to update the Grandstream firmware. To update
the firmware:
• Install a TFTP application.
• Download and extract firmware files.
• Configure the phone to point to the firmware files.
Installing a TFTP application
You require a TFTP server application to update the phone firmware. One such free TFTP utility
can be downloaded from Solarwinds at the following URL:
http://support.solarwinds.net/updates/New-customerFree.cfm?ProdId=52
1. Download and install the TFTP program.
2. Take note of the location of the TFTP program root directory location. The phone firmware
files are extracted to this directory in the next section. (i.e. for Solarwinds TFTP, the root
directory is C:\TFTP-Root).
