FIRMWARE VERSION 1.0.0.32 Updated : 11/2010
SOFTWARE UPGRADE
The GXV3175 can be upgraded via TFTP/HTTP/HTTPS by configuring the URL/IP Address for
the TFTP/HTTP/HTTPS server and selecting a download method. To configure a valid URL for
TFTP or HTTP, the server name can be the FQDN or IP address format. Examples of valid
URLs：
1. fw.ipvideotalk.com/gs
2.
72.172.83.110
There are two ways to setup a software upgrade server: Via Menu or the Web Configuration
Interface.
UPGRADE VIA MENU
In “Menu”->“System Settings”->“Maintenance”, users could configure the software upgrade server
through the menu in the phone. In the “Upgrade” subpage, users may then select the upgrade
mode and enter the IP address or FQDN of the Firmware server and the System Config server.
After making the changes, press save to apply the new settings and reboot the device for
upgrading.
UPGRADE VIA WEB BROWSER CONFIGURATION PAGE
Open a web browser and enter the IP address for the GXV3175. Next, log in with the
administrator username and password. Under Maintenance, select “Upgrade and provisioning”,
enter the IP address or the FQDN (URL) of the upgrade server and choose to upgrade via TFTP
or HTTP/HTTPS. Save the changes and reboot the unit.
At this moment, the LCD will display the progress of the software download/upgrade. Please do
not disrupt or power down the unit.
NOTE: The software upgrade will last up to 5 minutes (through the LAN side) and may take
longer when upgrading through the Internet (limited by the network bandwidth). Grandstream
recommends downloading and upgrading the software in a controlled LAN environment.
NO LOCAL TFTP SERVERS
For users without a local TFTP server, Grandstream offers a NAT-friendly TFTP server. This
enables users to download the latest software upgrades for their phone via this server. Please
refer to the webpage:
http://www.grandstream.com/firmware.html.
Alternatively, users can download a free TFTP or HTTP server and conduct a local firmware
upgrade. A free windows version TFTP server is available for download from
http://support.solarwinds.net/updates/New-customerFree.cfm or
http://tftpd32.jounin.net/.
Instructions for local firmware upgrade:
1. Unzip the firmware files and put all of them in the root directory of the TFTP server.
2. Connect the PC running the TFTP server and the GXV3175 device to the same LAN segment.
3. Launch the TFTP server and go to the File menu -> Configure -> Security to change the TFTP
server's default setting from "Receive Only" to "Transmit Only" for the firmware upgrade.
4. Start the TFTP server and configure the TFTP server in the phone’s web configuration
interface.
5. Configure the Firmware Server Path to the IP address of the PC.
