asterisk users - Jun 2006 - GXP-2000 and Configdownload via TFTP

Hi,

i got my Grandstream GXP-2000 phone today and want to configure it
with TFTP. I downloaded the firmware 1.1.0.13 and put it into my
tftp-server directory.
Then I downloaded the template from:
http://www.grandstream.com/DOWNLOAD/Configuration_Tool/Linux_Unix/Grandstream_Configuration_File_Template_1.0.6.x.txt

renamed it to cfg<mac-address>

Did the configuration in the new file and rebooted my phone.
I can see in the log file from my tftp server that all files are
loaded, the phone did a firmware upgrade.

But it doesn't seems that the configuration file is loaded.

Is it necessary to define on any place something that the phone use
the config-file via tftp?

Best regards,
Matthias

Hi,

I was now successful in getting syslog messages.
Syslog says the following:
Jun 14 15:43:57 192.168.0.117 GS_LOG: [<MAC>][708][FF71][0101000D] ERROR
4099 GET cfg<MAC>

What does errorcode 4099 mean?

Best regards,
Matthias

You need to run the java based tool from the grandstream website to
convert the template to a format the phone understands.

You need to encode txt configuration file using tool provided on GS site.

HI all,

I was on this list back in Dec-Jan but the asterisk server got pushed
back in the project queue and it seems to have finally risen to the top.

I am looking to deploy * running on Centos 4 on a Dell 2850.  I need a
single T-1 (PRI) card with HW echo cancellation.  I had been told that
the digium cards were having problems with Dell servers back in January
and also told that Sangoma was due to have a single T1 with echo
cancellation out by March at the latest (by an email from Digium
themselves).

I was wondering if anyone could give me a heads-up on the state of
single T-1 with HW EC cards.

Thanks,
W

I find it much cheaper to pick up a single T1 card and then grab a 
Tellabs E.C. off of ebaY.  Reduces the price by oh...... Several hundred 
USD.
