Grandstream SIP phone or SIP adapter configuration guide

This section describes how to install and configure the SIP phone and the analogic-SIP adapter produced by Grandstream. This device must be connected using an RJ45 cable (the same used for connecting PC's in a LAN). Since now the phone and the adapter will be treated as the same device, because the configuration settings are the same.

• Connect the phone to the Switch or to a PC or to another device provided with one ore more NIC

• Access the web management page writing the IP of the phone in the address bar of an Explorer page; there are two ways to know the IP address of the device:
  • Phone: pick up the handset and press menu; its display will show the IP of the phone
  • SIP Adapter: pick up the handset of the phone connected to it and press the red button of the adapter. Afterwards press twice the * button. A voice will tell you the IP address of the SIP adapter.

• If the your network is not provided with a DHCP server, the IP address of the SIP phone will be 0.0.0.0; in this case you have to configure it manually:
  1. Press the Menu button.
  2. Select the DHCP menu option and press the menu button; using arrow button set DHCP to off.
  3. Select IP Addr option.
  4. Press the Menu button and the phone display will show the IP address (0.0.0.0). Now enter the IP address you wish.
  5. You have also to enter Subnet Mask and Router IP (if requested) values, accessing SubNet and RoutEr menu options. (for more informations check the SIP phone manual)
• Insert the password to access the WEB management (default password = 'admin').

• A page like the one shown below will pop up.
  

Base configuration

1. If you want you can modify the password used for accessing the SIP phone web management page.

3. Specify as SIP server the voip.brujula.net. Leave the Outbound Proxy field blank.

4. Specify as SIP user ID the extension that you will assign to this phone; the same value must be inserted in the Authenticate ID field.

TFTP firmware upgrade

The SIP phone firmware can be upgraded, connecting to a TFTP server. This server must run on local machine (belonging to the same subnet of the phone).

Act as follow:

• download a TFTP server and install it in a local computer, if you don't have allreay one.

• download the last build of the phone firmware and insert in in the Root directory of the TFTP server.

• Insert the IP address of the local TFTP server in the TFTP server field of the SIP phone configuration (for example if the server has IP 192.168.0.162, you must insert this value in the 21st field of the configuration page)

• Select File --> Configure

• In the Security Tab select Receive and Transmit files

• Insert in the TFTP Root Directory the unzipped firmware file (many .bin files).
