[asterisk-users] Provisioning GXP 2000

[Cary Fitch]

Grandstream does have a FTP/HTTP provisioning scheme.
Note the Grandstream address in the provision areas on the phone web page.

When bought from some sources, the unit mac number can be registered to
"you" in a Grandstream server, so when the unit is plugged in it will be
redirected to your provisioning server.

Or, you can do it your self on first setup.

Then the unit will look to your servers for set up info.

There are programs that take setup info, pack it into "tight data" and put
it in a file using the mac address as the file name.

You put those on your provisioning server, and the phone will provision
itself.

Thus, if you want to change something on a phone or ATA, changing it in the
file will accomplish the change when the unit is rebooted, or when the
programmed update period comes up.

We have done all that, but in practice and with software revisions, we lost
the magic touch and program phones by hand for now.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Provisioning GXP 2000

I've done some googling and searched voip-info but I'm not able to find a
good answer about how to provision the GXP 2000.

Based on questions I've asked before it seems like a lot of people are using
the grandstream phones so I figure provisioning can't be that hard. Is
everyone using the web interface for *every* phone? Or is there a better,
more automatic, way?

TIA!!!

Thanks,
