    Scope

    This document provides instructions on how to change the transport type on devices.

    Requirements

    • Office Manager access to the Manager Portal

    Change Transport Type via Manager Portal

    1. 1

      Log in to the Manager Portal

    2. 2

      Navigate to Inventory > Phone Hardware

    3. 3

      Click the pencil icon on the right

      NOTE: Do not click the MAC Address as this will open SNAPbuilder

    4. 4

      Select the Advanced tab

    5. 5

      Click the Transport Method to TLS, TCP, or UDP

    6. 6

      Alternatively, you can bulk-edit phones and change the Transport Method of the selected phones to TLS, UDP, or TCP.

    7. 7

      Click Save and Resync to apply your changes to the phone

      NOTE: The phone will reboot. In our testing, we have found that this method of changing the transport method is not always respected by Grandstreams - you will likely need to change the transport type of these devices in the Web GUI or via Override.
