Grandstream GXP2xx Configuration Guide (Classic)


This article describes the configuration of most Grandstream GXP2xx series. The only difference would be the lack of some features or some extra features that don’t affect registration.


If the phone was previously used with another service provider, you may need to factory reset it before logging in.
