Application Description  
A SIP proxy server such as Asterisk or a SIP registrar server can be deployed with the GXW-410xv  
series. In this environment, the SIP server handles SIP registration and call control and the GXW-410xv  
processes media conversion between IP and PSTN calls. By design, the system supports the call  
progress tones and PSTN signaling standards for North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia, and  
various other countries/regions.

SIMPLE CONFIGURATION: MEDIA GATEWAY TO ACCESS PSTN NETWORKS  
GXW-410xv can be configured to work with any leading SIP server, for a pure media gateway to access  
PSTN networks. In such applications, the user only needs to configure GXW-410xvgateway Stage Dialing  
field and Sip Server field.  
For a simple set-up, users only need to configure a SIP server field for default SIP Profile 1. This field  
should be configured to point to the SIP server to be used with the GXW-410xv.  
For advanced applications, the user is required to choose at least one SIP server field from the SIP  
profiles and one stage dialing under system Channel configuration table. On SIP server sides, the SIP  
server must be configured to forward user PSTN calls to the GXW-410xv.  
Please be aware that by default, the system uses North American PSTN settings and TWO STAGE  
dialing to access PSTN networks for VOIP to PSTN calls and PSTN to VOIP calls. Two stage dialing  
means the end-user will hear dial-tone twice. First dial-tone is used to let users to input destination  
number in the same network of the calling networks. Second dial-tone is used to let users to input final  
destination number.

The GXW-410xv also supports ONE STAGE dialing, which means users only need to input one final  
PSTN number when first dial-tone is heard for calls from VOIP to PSTN. This requires configuring both  
SIP server and GXW-410xv to one stage dialing (see last section of quick guide and user manual for one  
stage dialing). For one stage PSTN to VOIP calls, user needs to configure off-hook auto dial field (see  
last section on sample configuration  
EXTENSIVE CONFIGURATION: MEDIA GATEWAY CONFIGURATION FOR MULTIPLE USERS  
The GXW-410xv can be configured to work with a variety of SIP server features and traditional PBX on  
PSTN networks, with a different SIP server on each physical port. Each port may have its own voice  
setting, dialing settings, PSTN termination setting, and DTMF transmission settings.  
OFF-HOOK AUTO DIAL  
The FXO interface currently does not support direct inward dialing (DID). The GXW-410xv implements an  
off-hook auto dial feature for each physical port. Configure off-hook auto dial to forward PSTN incoming  
call to a specific SIP number, call center or hunt group.  
SAMPLE CONFIGURATIONS - IP PBX PEERS WITH GXW-410XV  
There are 2 methods to configure GXW to work with IP PBX:  
1) Configure GXW with SIP Accounts in IP PBX, this will enable you to put GXW behind a  
NAT/Firewall.  
2) Configure GXW without SIP Accounts in IP PBX, this makes GXW function as a PEER gateway.  
more information for quick installation.  
Note: In regions other than North American, the user is also required to configure call progress tones  
and PSTN line termination fields. Check with local PSTN service carriers on values service providers use  
on the lines. If service provider doesn’t provide these values and users don’t know what the correct  
values are, please use the default values. Contact product support for additional help in configuring your  
GXW-410xv.

CONFIGURATION GUIDE  
CONFIGURATION WITH WEB BROWSER  
The GXW-410xv has an embedded Web server that will respond to HTTP GET/POST requests. It also  
has embedded HTML pages that allow a user to configure the IP phone through any common web  
browser. Examples of GUI interfaces can be downloaded @  
ACCESSING THE WEB CONFIGURATION MENU  
1. Connect the Power to the GXW-410xv unit.  
2. Connect an Ethernet cable between the LAN port on GXW-410xv to your PC.  
3. You will have to assign a dummy IP with the same subnet as the GXW IP Address, which is  
192.168.0.160 by default. So, set an IP address like 192.168.0.x for your PC.  
4. Launch web browser and type http://192.168.0.160 at address of web browser. This connects you  
to the GXW-410xv web server.  
You may choose to use DHCP or PPPoE connection or another static IP address according to your local  
network environment.  
The Gateway Web Configuration Menu can be then accessed by the following URI: http://Gateway-IP-  
Address where the Gateway-IP-Address is the IP address of the Gateway.  
NOTE: To access the configuration page, type the GXW IP address into the browser, stripping out the  
leading “0” because the browser will parse in octet. e.g. if the IP address is: 192.168.001.014, please  
type in: 192.168.1.14.

TABLE 11: GRANDSTREAM CONFIGURATION PAGE DEFINITIONS  
Activate Profile  
Profile Name  
SIP Server  
When set to Yes the SIP Profile is activated.  
A name to identify a Profile.  
SIP Server’s IP address or Domain name provided by VoIP service provider.  
Outbound Proxy IP address or Domain name of Outbound Proxy, or Media Gateway, or Session  
Border Controller. Used by GXW-410xv for firewall or NAT penetration in different  
network environments. If symmetric NAT is detected, STUN will not work and  
ONLY outbound proxy can correct the problem.  
Use DNS SRV:  
Default is No. If set to Yes the client will use DNS SRV to look up server.  
User ID is Phone If the GXW-410xv has an assigned PSTN telephone number, this field should be  
Number  
set to “Yes”. Otherwise, set it to “No”. If “Yes” is set, a “user=phone” parameter will  
be attached to the “From” header in SIP request.  
SIP Registration This parameter controls whether the GXW-410xv needs to send REGISTER  
messages to the proxy server. The default setting is “Yes”.  
Unregister on  
Reboot  
Default is No. If set to yes, the SIP user’s registration information will be cleared on  
reboot.  
Register  
Expiration  
This parameter allows the user to specify the time frequency (in minutes) for the  
GXW-410xv to refresh its registration with the specified registrar. The default  
interval is 60 minutes (or 1 hour). The maximum interval is 65535 minutes (about  
45 days).  
Local SIP port  
NAT Traversal  
This parameter defines the local SIP port the GXW-410xv will listen and transmit.  
The default value for Account 1 is 5060. It is 5062, 5064, 5066 for Account 2,  
Account 3 and Account 4 respectively.  
This parameter defines whether the GXW-410xv NAT traversal mechanism will be  
activated or not. If activated (by choosing “Yes”) and a STUN server is also  
specified, then the GXW-410xv will behave according to the STUN client  
specification. Under this mode, the embedded STUN client inside the GXW-410xv  
will attempt to detect if and what type of firewall/NAT it is sitting behind through  
communication with the specified STUN server. If the detected NAT is a Full Cone,  
Restricted Cone, or a Port-Restricted Cone, the GXW-410xv will attempt to use its  
mapped public IP address and port in all of its SIP and SDP messages. If the NAT  
Traversal field is set to “Yes” with no specified STUN server, the GXW-410xv will  
periodically (every 20 seconds or so) send a blank UDP packet (with no payload  
data) to the SIP server to keep the “hole” on the NAT open.  
Proxy-Require  
Early Dial  
SIP Extension to notify SIP server that the unit is behind the NAT/Firewall.  
Default is No. Use only if proxy supports 484 response.  
Session  
Expiration  
Grandstream implemented SIP Session Timer. The session timer extension  
enables SIP sessions to be periodically “refreshed” via a SIP request (UPDATE, or  
re-INVITE. Once the session interval expires, if there is no refresh via a UPDATE or  
re-INVITE message, the session will be terminated. Session Expiration is the time  
(in seconds) at which the session is considered timed out, if no successful session  
refresh transaction occurs beforehand. The default value is 180 seconds.

Min-SE  
The minimum session expiration (in seconds). The default value is 90 seconds.  
Caller Request  
Timer  
If selecting “Yes” the phone will use session timer when it makes outbound calls if  
remote party supports session timer.  
Callee Request  
Timer  
If selecting “Yes” the phone will use session timer when it receives inbound calls  
with session timer request.  
Force Timer  
If selecting “Yes” the phone will use session timer even if the remote party does not  
support this feature. Selecting “No” will allow the phone to enable session timer only  
when the remote party support this feature. To turn off Session Timer, select “No”  
for Caller Request Timer, Callee Request Timer, and Force Timer.  
UAC Specify  
Refresher  
As a Caller, select UAC to use the phone as the refresher, or UAS to use the Callee  
or proxy server as the refresher.  
UAS Specify  
Refresher  
As a Callee, select UAC to use caller or proxy server as the refresher, or UAS to  
use the phone as the refresher.  
Force INVITE  
Session Timer can be refreshed using INVITE method or UPDATE method. Select  
“Yes” to use INVITE method to refresh the session timer.  
Enable 100rel  
The use of the PRACK (Provisional Acknowledgment) method enables reliability to  
be offered to SIP provisional responses (1xx series). This is very important if PSTN  
inter-networking is to be supported. A user’s request to use reliable provisional  
responses is invoked by the 100rel tag which is appended to the value of the  
required header of initial signalling messages.  
Send  
Anonymous  
If this parameter is set to “Yes”, the “From” header in outgoing INVITE message will  
be set to anonymous, essentially blocking the Caller ID from displaying.  
Preferred  
Vocoder  
The GXW-410xv supports up to 5 different Vocoder types including G.711 A-/U-law,  
GSM, G.723.1, G.729A/B. The user can configure Vocoders in a preference list  
that will be included with the same preference order in SDP message. The first  
Vocoder in this list can be entered by choosing the appropriate option in “Choice 1”.  
Similarly, the last Vocoder in this list can be entered by choosing the appropriate  
option in “Choice 8”.  
Special Feature  
Default is Standard. Choose the selection to meet some special requirements from  
Soft Switch vendors like Nortel, Broadsoft, etc.

FIRMWARE UPGRADE  
Our latest official release can be downloaded from: http://www.grandstream.com/y-firmware.htm.  
Firmware (or software) upgrades can be done either via TFTP or HTTP. The corresponding configuration  
settings are on the configuration page. End users should NOT touch the configuration settings that are  
useful for ITSPs. To upgrade your unit firmware, follow these steps:  
1. Under Advanced Settings webpage, enter your TFTP or HTTP Server IP address (or FQDN) next  
to the “Firmware Upgrade: Upgrade Server” field.  
2. Select via TFTP or HTTP accordingly.  
3. If you plan to use Automatic Upgrade, set it to “Yes”, otherwise No (this will make it check for  
upgrade every time you reboot).  
UPGRADE THROUGH HTTP  
To upgrade firmware via HTTP, the field “Firmware Upgrade and Provisioning: Upgrade Via” needs to be  
set to HTTP. The “Firmware Server Path” should be set to where the firmware files are located.  
For example, the user can use the following URL in the Firmware Server Path:  
firmware.mycompany.com: 6688/Grandstream/1.0.0.29 where firmware.mycompany.com is the FQDN of  
the HTTP server. It can also be in IP address format. “:6688” is the TCP port the HTTP server listening to,  
default http server listens to port 80. “/Grandstream/1.0.0.29” is the RELATIVE directory to the root dir on  
HTTP web server.

UPGRADE THROUGH TFTP  
To upgrade firmware via TFTP, set the field “Firmware Upgrade and Provisioning: Upgrade Via” to TFTP.  
The TFTP server can be configured in either IP address format or FQDN.  
To configure the TFTP server via the Web configuration interface, follow these five steps:  
1. Open your browser to input the IP address of the GXW-410xv.  
2. Enter the admin password to enter the configuration screen.  
3. Enter the TFTP server address or URL in the “Firmware Server Path” field near the  
bottom of the configuration screen.  
4. Once the “Firmware Server Path” is set, update the change by clicking the “Update”  
button.  
5. Reboot or power cycle the unit.  
If the configured updating server is found and a new code image is available, the GXW-410xv will retrieve  
the new image files by downloading them into the GXW-410xv’s SRAM. During this stage, the GXW-  
410xv’s LED will blink until the checking/downloading process is completed. Upon verification of  
checksum, the new code image will be saved into the Flash. If TFTP fails for any reason (e.g., TFTP  
server is not responding, there are no code image files available for upgrade, or checksum test fails, etc),  
the GXW-410xv will stop the TFTP process and simply boot using the existing code image in the flash.  
Firmware upgrading may take as long as 20 minutes over the Internet, or just 20+ seconds if it is  
performed on a LAN. Grandstream recommends conducting firmware upgrades in a controlled LAN  
environment if possible.  
NO LOCAL TFTP SERVER  
For users who do not have a local TFTP server, Grandstream provides a NAT-friendly TFTP server on  
the public Internet for users to download the latest firmware upgrade automatically. Please check the  
Services section of Grandstream’s Web site to obtain this TFTP server IP address. Alternatively, user  
can download and install a free TFTP or HTTP server in his LAN for a firmware upgrade.  
A free Windows version TFTP server can be downloaded from:  
Directions For Downloading TFTP Server:  
1. Unzip the file and put all of the files under the root directory of the TFTP server.  
2. Put the PC running the TFTP server and the GXW–410x in the same LAN segment.  
3. Go to File -> Configure -> Security to change the TFTP server's default setting from "Receive  
Only" to "Transmit Only" for the firmware upgrade.  
4. Start the TFTP server, in the phone’s web configuration page.  
5. Configure the Firmware Server Path with the IP address of the PC.  
6. Update the change and reboot the unit.  
You can also download the free HTTP server from http://httpd.apache.org/ or just use Microsoft IIS web.

from 1.5 Mbps to 9 Mbps downstream (to the subscriber) and from 16 kbps to 800 kbps upstream,  
depending on line distance.  
AGC Automatic Gain Control is an electronic system found in many types of devices. Its purpose is to  
control the gain of a system in order to maintain some measure of performance over a changing range of  
real world conditions.  
ARP Address Resolution Protocol is a protocol used by the Internet Protocol (IP) [RFC826], specifically  
IPv4, to map IP network addresses to the hardware addresses used by a data link protocol. The protocol  
operates below the network layer as a part of the interface between the OSI network and OSI link layer. It  
is used when IPv4 is used over Ethernet  
ATA Analogue Telephone Adapter. Covert analogue telephone to be used in data network for VoIP, like  
Grandstream HT series products.  
CODEC Abbreviation for Coder-Decoder. It's an analog-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A)  
converter for translating the signals from the outside world to digital, and back again.  
CNG Comfort Noise Generator, generate artificial background noise used in radio and wireless  
communications to fill the silent time in a transmission resulting from voice activity detection.  
DATAGRAM A data packet carrying its own address information so it can be independently routed from  
its source to the destination computer  
DECIMATE To discard portions of a signal in order to reduce the amount of information to be encoded or  
compressed. Lossy compression algorithms ordinarily decimate while sub-sampling.  
DECT Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications: A standard developed by the European  
Telecommunication Standard Institute from 1988, governing pan-European digital mobile telephony.  
DECT covers wireless PBXs, telepoint, residential cordless telephones, wireless access to the public  
switched telephone network, Closed User Groups (CUGs), Local Area Networks, and wireless local loop.  
The DECT Common Interface radio standard is a multi-carrier time division multiple access, time division  
duplex (MC-TDMA-TDD) radio transmission technique using ten radio frequency channels from 1880 to  
1930 MHz, each divided into 24 time slots of 10ms, and twelve full-duplex accesses per carrier, for a total  
of 120 possible combinations. A DECT base station (an RFP, Radio Fixed Part) can transmit all 12  
possible accesses (time slots) simultaneously by using different frequencies or using only one frequency.  
All signaling information is transmitted from the RFP within a multi-frame (16 frames). Voice signals are  
digitally encoded into a 32 Kbit/s signal using Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation.

FQDN Fully Qualified Domain Name. A FQDN consists of a host and domain name, including top-level  
domain. For example, www.grandstream.com is a fully qualified domain name. www is the host,  
Grandstream is the second-level domain, and and.com is the top level domain.  
FXO Foreign eXchange Office. An FXO device can be an analog phone, answering machine, fax, or  
anything that handles a call from the telephone company like AT&T. They should also operate the same  
way when connected to an FXS interface.  
An FXO interface will accept calls from FXS or PSTN interfaces. All countries and regions have  
their own standards.  
FXO is complimentary to FXS (and the PSTN).  
FXS Foreign eXchange Station. An FXS device has hardware to generate the ring signal to the FXO  
extension (usually an analog phone).  
An FXS device will allow any FXO device to operate as if it were connected to the phone  
company. This makes your PBX the POTS+PSTN for the phone.  
The FXS Interface connects to FXO devices (by an FXO interface, of course).  
DHCP The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an Internet protocol for automating the  
configuration of computers that use TCP/IP. DHCP can be used to automatically assign IP addresses, to  
deliver TCP/IP stack configuration parameters such as the subnet mask and default router, and to provide  
other configuration information such as the addresses for printer, time and news servers.  
ECHO CANCELLATION Echo Cancellation is used in telephony to describe the process of removing  
improving quality, this process improves bandwidth savings achieved through silence suppression by  
preventing echo from traveling across a network. There are two types of echo of relevance in telephony:  
acoustic echo and hybrid echo. Speech compression techniques and digital processing delay often  
contribute to echo generation in telephone networks.  
H.323 A suite of standards for multimedia conferences on traditional packet-switched networks.  
HTTP Hyper Text Transfer Protocol; the World Wide Web protocol that performs the request and retrieve  
functions of a server  
IP Internet Protocol. A packet-based protocol for delivering data across networks.  
IP-PBX IP-based Private Branch Exchange  
IP Telephony (Internet Protocol telephony, also known as Voice over IP Telephony) A general term for  
the technologies that use the Internet Protocol's packet-switched connections to exchange voice, fax, and  
other forms of information that have traditionally been carried over the dedicated circuit-switched  
connections of the public switched telephone network (PSTN). The basic steps involved in originating an  
IP Telephony call are conversion of the analog voice signal to digital format and compression/translation  
of the signal into Internet protocol (IP) packets for transmission over the Internet or other packet-switched  
networks; the process is reversed at the receiving end. The terms IP Telephony and Internet Telephony  
are often used to mean the same; however, they are not 100 per cent interchangeable, since Internet is  
only a subcase of packet-switched networks. For users who have free or fixed-price Internet access, IP  
Telephony software essentially provides free telephone calls anywhere in the world. However, the  
challenge of IP Telephony is maintaining the quality of service expected by subscribers. Session border  
controllers resolve this issue by providing quality assurance comparable to legacy telephone systems.  
IVR IVR is a software application that accepts a combination of voice telephone input and touch-tone  
keypad selection and provides appropriate responses in the form of voice, fax, callback, e-mail and  
perhaps other media.

MTU A Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the largest size packet or frame, specified in octets (eight-  
bit bytes), that can be sent in a packet- or frame-based network such as the Internet. The maximum for  
Ethernet is 1500 byte.  
NAT Network Address Translation  
NTP Network Time Protocol, a protocol to exchange and synchronize time over networks The port used  
is UDP 123 Grandstream products using NTP to get time from Internet  
OBP/SBC Outbound Proxy or another name Session Border Controller. A device used in VoIP networks.  
OBP/SBCs are put into the signaling and media path between calling and called party. The OBP/SBC  
acts as if it was the called VoIP phone and places a second call to the called party. The effect of this  
behavior is that not only the signaling traffic, but also the media traffic (voice, video etc) crosses the  
OBP/SBC. Without an OBP/SBC, the media traffic travels directly between the VoIP phones. Private  
OBP/SBCs are used along with firewalls to enable VoIP calls to and from a protected enterprise network.  
Public VoIP service providers use OBP/SBCs to allow the use of VoIP protocols from private networks  
with internet connections using NAT.  
PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet is a network protocol for encapsulating PPP frames in  
Ethernet frames. It is used mainly with cable modem and DSL services.  
PSTN Public Switched Telephone Network. The phone service we use for every ordinary phone call, or  
called POT (Plain Old Telephone), or circuit switched network.  
RTCP Real-time Transport Control Protocol, defined in RFC 3550, a sister protocol of the Real-time  
Transport Protocol (RTP), It partners RTP in the delivery and packaging of multimedia data, but does not  
transport any data itself. It is used periodically to transmit control packets to participants in a streaming  
multimedia session. The primary function of RTCP is to provide feedback on the quality of service being  
provided by RTP.  
RTP Real-time Transport Protocol defines a standardized packet format for delivering audio and video  
over the Internet. It was developed by the Audio-Video Transport Working Group of the IETF and first  
published in 1996 as RFC 1889  
SDP Session Description Protocol is a format for describing streaming media initialization parameters. It  
has been published by the IETF as RFC 2327.  
SIP Session Initiation Protocol, An IP telephony signaling protocol developed by the IETF (RFC3261).  
SIP is a text-based protocol suitable for integrated voice-data applications. SIP is designed for voice

STUN Simple Traversal of UDP over NATs is a network protocol allowing clients behind NAT (or multiple  
NATs) to find out its public address, the type of NAT it is behind and the internet side port associated by  
the NAT with a particular local port. This information is used to set up UDP communication between two  
hosts that are both behind NAT routers. The protocol is defined in RFC 3489. STUN will usually work well  
with non-symmetric NAT routers.  
TCP Transmission Control Protocol is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite. Using TCP,  
applications on networked hosts can create connections to one another, over which they can exchange  
data or packets. The protocol guarantees reliable and in-order delivery of sender to receiver data.

UDP User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core protocols of the Internet protocol suite. Using  
UDP, programs on networked computers can send short messages known as datagrams to one another.  
UDP does not provide the reliability and ordering guarantees that TCP does; datagrams may arrive out of  
order or go missing without notice. However, as a result, UDP is faster and more efficient for many  
lightweight or time-sensitive purposes.  
VAD Voice Activity Detection or Voice Activity Detector is an algorithm used in speech processing  
wherein, the presence or absence of human speech is detected from the audio samples.  
VLAN A virtual LAN, known as a VLAN, is a logically-independent network. Several VLANs can co-exist  
on a single physical switch. It is usually refer to the IEEE 802.1Q tagging protocol.  
VoIP Voice over the Internet. VoIP encompasses many protocols. All the protocols do some form of  
signaling of call capabilities and transport of voice data from one point to another. e.g.: SIP, H.323, etc.
