Hi,
 
Aastra IP Phones have two configuration files on TFTP, aastra.cfg and <mac>.cfg. Both are in text format, which makes editing easy. And aastra.cfg has system wide settings and <mac>.cfg has settings for each indivifual phones. This makes it really easy to change the global parameters system wide by changing only one aastra.cfg file.
 
On the other hand, as I could understand, for Grandstream TFTP setup, each phones needs a separate file, which has to be edited and then converted to its own format usint ./encode.sh. There is no such file which would carry global settings for all the phones on a system. Changing 10s of configuration files for one small little thing, like daylight saving = 0, and then converting all of them to its own format is not a good way of dealing with many phones.
 
Is there a quicker way to change settings for all Grandstream phones, is there any one file which can act as a global configuration file without changing each phones phone specific settings? And can't it be simply done by text editing, without the need to convert each file to cfg<mac> format?
