6.1 
Upgrade through HTTP 
 
To upgrade software, BudgeTone 200 can be configured with an HTTP server where the 
new code image file is located.  For example, following URL in the HTTP Upgrade 
Server: 
 
http://firmware.mycompany.com:6688/Grandstream/1.0.1.12 
 
Where firmware.mycompany.com is the FQDN of the HTTP server, “:6688” is the TCP 
port the HTTP server listening to, “/Grandstream/1.0.0.4” is the RELATIVE directory to 
the root dir in HTTP server.  Thus, you can put different firmware into different directory 
as well. 
 
NOTE: 
 
•  If “Auto Upgrade” field is set to “No”, HTTP upgrade will be performed only 
once during boot up.   If it is set to “Yes”, the device will check the HTTP server 
in the number of days that is defined in “Check for new firmware every” field. 
 
6.2 
Upgrade through TFTP 
 
To upgrade software, BudgeTone 200 can be configured with a TFTP server where the 
new code image is located. It is recommended to set the TFTP server address in either a 
public IP address or on the same LAN with the BudgeTone 200.  
 
There are two ways to set up the TFTP server to upgrade the firmware, namely through 
voice menu prompt or via the BudgeTone 200’s Web configuration interface. To 
configure the TFTP server via voice prompt, please refer to section 5.1 with option 06, 
once set up the TFTP IP address, power cycle the device, the firmware will be fetched 
once the device boots up.  
 
To configure the TFTP server via the Web configuration interface, open up your browser 
to point at the IP address of the BudgeTone 200. Input the admin password to enter the 
configuration screen. From there, enter the TFTP server address in the designated field 
towards the bottom of the configuration screen. Once the TFTP server is set
user needs 
to update the change by clicking the “Update” button. Then “Reboot” or power cycle the 
phone, the firmware files will be fetched upon booting up.  
  
TFTP checking is only performed during the initial power up. If the configured TFTP 
server is found and a new code image is available, the BudgeTone 200 will attempt to
