REBOOTING THE DP715 BASE STATION FROM REMOTE
Press the “Reboot” button at the bottom of the configuration menu to reboot the DP715 Base Station
remotely. The web browser will then display a message window to confirm that reboot is underway. Wait 30
seconds to log in again.
CONFIGURING THE DP715 BASE STATION THROUGH A CENTRAL SERVER
Grandstream DP715 Base Station can be automatically configured from a central provisioning system.
When the base station boots up, it will send TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS request to download configuration file,
“cfg000b82xxxxxx” or “cfg00082xxxxxx.xml”, where “000b82xxxxxx” is the MAC address of the DP715. It
will first request “cfg000b82xxxxxx” then “cfg000b82xxxxxx.xml”
The configuration file can be downloaded via TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS from the central server. A service
provider or an enterprise with large deployment of DP715 can easily manage the configuration and service
provisioning of individual devices remotely from a central server.
Grandstream has a provisioning system called GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System) that
is used to support automated configuration of Grandstream devices. GAPS uses enhanced (NAT friendly)
TFTP or HTTP (thus no NAT issues) and other communication protocols to communicate with each
individual Grandstream device for firmware upgrade, remote reboot, etc.
Grandstream provides GAPS service to VoIP service providers. Use GAPS for either simple redirection or
with certain special provisioning settings. At boot-up, Grandstream devices by default point to Grandstream
provisioning server GAPS, based on the unique MAC address of each device, GAPS provision the devices
with redirection settings so that they will be redirected to customer’s TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS server for
further provisioning.
Grandstream also provides a configuration tool to facilitate the task of generating device configuration
files. The Grandstream configuration tool is free to end users. The tool and configuration templates are
available for download from http://www.grandstream.com/support/tools .
