Grandstream Networks, Inc.

“000b82xxxxxx” is the MAC address of the HandyTone ATA. For more information regarding configuration file format, please refer to the related Grandstream documentation.

The configuration file can be downloaded via TFTP or HTTP from the central server. A service provider or an enterprise with large deployment of HandyTone ATAs can easily manage the configuration and service provisioning of individual devices remotely and automatically from a central server. GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System) uses enhanced (NAT friendly) TFTP or HTTP (thus no NAT issues) and other communication protocols to communicate with each individual HandyTone ATA for firmware upgrade, remote reboot, etc.

Grandstream provides a licensed provisioning system called GAPS that can be used to support automated configuration of HandyTone ATA. To enable this feature on the HandyTone ATA, a user just needs to enter the IP address of the GAPS server in the TFTP server field of the configuration screen, or enter the HTTP provisioning Server URL in the HTTP Upgrade Server field. Then reboot the HandyTone ATA.

For details on how GAPS works, please refer to the documentation of GAPS product.
