Device Specific Firmware Versions
|
|
======================
|
|
Select Grandstream phones (particularly the GXP2140 and similar) need firmware upgrades in a certain order.
|
|
Grandstream also offers beta firmware quite often, which you may want to test on only some devices.
|
|
|
|
We've attempted to make the process of changing firmware easier, by serving a phone with the firmware specified in a field called
|
|
Firmware under Accounts => Devices then click on the MAC address of the relevant device, filling in said field.
|
|
|
|
To use configurable firmware locations, enable device_firmware for the superadmin group under Advanced => Group Manager, set the
|
|
URL for grandstream_firmware_path under Advanced => Default Variables and set Enabled to True for grandstream_firmware_path.
|
|
|
|
We would suggest creating a folder called firmware on the webserver that you host the firmware on, setting grandstream_firmware_path
|
|
to the full URL (excluding the protocol - leave off the `http://`) for example `mydomain.com/firmware` or `mydomain.com/firmware/grandstream`
|
|
if you are hosting multiple different vendors firmware images. When a device goes to hit this server, it will attempt to load
|
|
`<grandstream_firmware_path>/<device model>/<firmware version>/<firmware file>`, or `mydomain.com/firmware/gxp2140/1.0.9.69/gxp2140fw.bin`
|
|
in our case, assuming we have a Grandstream GXP2140 phone and we are feeding it firmware version 1.0.9.69. For Grandstream phones,
|
|
the firmware filename is relatively static, and the files Grandstream distributes are generally named correctly for their phones
|
|
to download.
