The configuration files can be downloaded via TFTP or HTTP from the central server. A service 
provider or an enterprise with large deployment of HandyTone ATA can easily manage the 
configuration and service provisioning of individual devices remotely from a central server.  
 
Grandstream provides a licensed provisioning system called GAPS that can be used to support 
automated configuration of HandyTone ATA.  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 provide GAPS (Grandstream Automated Provisioning System) service to VoIP service 
providers.  It could be either simple redirection or with certain special provisioning settings. Initially 
upon booting up, Grandstream devices by default point to Grandstream provisioning server GAPS, 
based on the unique MAC address of each device, GAPS provision the devices with redirection 
settings so that they will be redirected to customer’s TFTP or HTTP server for further provisioning.  
Grandstream also provide GAPSLite software package which contains our NAT friendly TFTP server 
and a configuration tool to facilitate the task of generating device configuration files.   
  
The GAPSLite configuration tool is now free to end users. The tool and configuration template are 
available for download from
