How Do I Transfer a Phone Book to a GXP2130?

GXP2130Q: Can I download contacts and transfer to a GXP2130? How do you do it?

A: You should be able to import an XML phone book to the phone. In the web interface of the phone, go to Phone Book- > Phone Book Management and use the upload button to send an XML phone book to the phone. You can also have it download a phone book from an http server.

Q: What is the Web interface? When I go to contacts on the p hone and click download, phone will start to download new XML file but nothing happens. I am still missing something.

A: I’m referring to the web interface of the phone, which can be reached by typing the IP of the phone into a web browser. The user and password are admin and admin respectively. You can then follow the directions I mentioned above. You will need to generate a XML file which can be done with the universal phone book editor from Grandstream. You can find it under tools.
