do u mean, you just placed the edited configuration (text file) on the http server? no, you need to install the Configuration Tool program. the program needs the ff parameters:
1. MAC address
2. template text file

it should produce a binary cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx file. this is the one u must place in your server.

btw, i'm not familiar w/ DHCP Option 43. so, i use the keypad to point the IP phone to the config server. :-)

Hello Nandy,

this is exactly what i did i mean .. quite close...

i configured the DHCP server to pass the address of the http server to the phone via DHCP Option 43 (vendor-specific) by tunneling option 66 within option 43. With wireshark, i can see the phone gets the config file from the specified server/path but for some reason it doesn't applay it.

do i need to configure something special on that template ? I've changed sip server/accounts settings and some other things but it doesn't seem to be working.

I got the template from http://www.grandstream.com/support/configurationtool.html

do i need to encode it in a certan way before putting it to a http server?

i'm using ht503 ata but the auto-provisioning should be the same. u need the ff:
1. GS configuration tool
2. configuration template
3. TFTP/HTTP server

general steps:
1. get a copy of the raw config text file and modify the settings
2. run the GS java program to create the cfgxxxxxxxxxxxx where the xxxxxxxxxxxx is the MAC address of the IP phone
3. place this file on the TFTP/HTTP server
4. set the IP address of the configuration server in the IP phone via keypad
5. reboot it

hope it helps.

hello guys,

anyone using that model ?

if yes, how do u do auto-provisioning ? ... I managed the phone to get the config file during boot (via dhcp option 43) but it is not applying it ... any hint ?
