Configuration File Download
Grandstream SIP Device can be configured via Web Interface as well as via Configuration File through
TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS. “Config Server Path” is the T FTP or HTTP/HTTPS server path for c onfiguration
file. It needs to be set to a valid URL, either in FQDN or IP address format. The “Config Server Path” can
be same or different from the “Firmware Server Path”.
A configuration parameter is associated with each particular field in the web configuration page. A
parameter consists of a Capit al letter P and 1 to 3 (Could be exten ded to 4 in the future) digit numeric
numbers. i.e., P2 is associated with “Admin Password” in the ADVANCED SETT INGS page. For a
detailed parameter list, please refer to the corresponding firmware release configuration template.
When Grandstream Device boots u p or reboots, it will issue request for configuration file named
“cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx”, where “xxxxxxxxxxxx” is the MAC address of the device, i.e., “cfg000b820102ab”. The
configuration file name should be in lower cases.
Firmware and Configuration File Prefix and Postfix
Firmware Prefix and Postfix allows device to download the f irmware name with the matching Prefix and

Similarly, Config File Pref ix and Postfix allows device to download the configuration file with the matching
Prefix and Postfix. Thus multiple configuration files for the same device can be stored in one directory.
In addition, when the field “Check New Firm ware only when F/W pre/suffix changes” is set to “Yes”, the
device will only issue firmware upgrade request if there are changes in the firmware Prefix or Postfix.
