Keep-alive interval 
This parameter specifies how often the GXP 
sends a blank UDP packet to the 
SIP server in order to keep the “hole” on the NAT open. Default is 20 seconds. 
Use NAT IP 
NAT IP address used in SIP/SDP message. Default is blank. 
STUN Server 
IP address or Domain name of the STUN server. STUN resolution result will 
be 
displayed in the STATUS page of the Web UI. 
Firmware Upgrade and 
Provisioning 
Default method is HTTP. Firmware upgrade may take up to 10 minutes 
depending on network environment. Do not interrupt the firmware upgrading 
process. 
Via TFTP Server 
This is the IP address of the configured TFTP server. If selected and it is non-
zero or not blank, the GXP will attempt to retrieve a new configuration fi
le or new 
code image from the specified TFTP server at boot time. It will make up to 3 
attempts before timeout and then it will start the boot process using the existing 
code image in the Flash memory. If a TFTP server is configured and a new code 
image is 
retrieved, the new downloaded image will be verified and then saved 
into the Flash memory. 
Note: 
Grandstream strongly recommends that the user upgrade firmware locally 
in a LAN environment if using TFTP to upgrade. Please do NOT interrupt the 
TFTP upgrade process (es
pecially the power supply) as this will damage the 
device.  
Via HTTP Server 
The HTTP server URL used for firmware upgrade and configuration via HTTP.  
For example: http://provisioning.mycompany.com:6688/Grandstream/1.2.5.3
Here “:6688
” is the specific TCP port that the HTTP server is using; omit if using 
default port 80. 
Note: If Auto Upgrade is set to No, GXP 
will only perform HTTP download once 
at boot up. 
Config Server Path 
IP address or domain name of firmware server. 
XML Config File Password 
(For 
GXP280/GXP/285/GXP1200 
Only) 
The XML provisioning system allows Grandstream phones to perform 
configuration updates via XML configuration files. Users can set the XML config 
file password in the web UI of the phone. 
Firmware File 
Prefix/Postfix 
Default is blank. If configured, GXP will request the firmware file with the 
prefix/postfix. This setting is useful for ITSPs. End user should keep it blank.  
Config File  
Prefix/Postfix 
Default is blank. End user should keep it blank. 
Allow DHCP Option 43 and 
Option 66 to override

Default is Yes. This allows the device to get provisioned automatically.

Default is “No”. If set to “Yes”, configuration file would be authenticated before 
acceptance. End user should use default setting.
