“000b82xxxxxx” is the MAC address of the HandyTone ATA. For more information regarding
configuration file format, please refer to the related Grandstream documentation.
The configuration file can be downloaded via TFTP or HTTP from the central server. A service
provider or an enterprise with large deployment of HandyTone ATAs can easily manage the
configuration and service provisioning of individual devices remotely and automatically from a central
server. GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System) uses enhanced (NAT friendly) TFTP or
HTTP (thus no NAT issues) and other communication protocols to communicate with each individual
HandyTone ATA for firmware upgrade, remote reboot, etc.
Grandstream provides a licensed provisioning system called GAPS that can be used to support
automated configuration of HandyTone ATA. To enable this feature on the HandyTone ATA, a user
just needs to enter the IP address of the GAPS server in the TFTP server field of the configuration
screen, or enter the HTTP provisioning Server URL in the HTTP Upgrade Server field. Then reboot
the HandyTone ATA.
For details on how GAPS works, please refer to the documentation of GAPS product.
