UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
OVERVIEW
This document will provide instructions on how to set up a UCM6200 series from an out of the box state to a
fully functional state. This includes design considerations, creating user extensions, provisioning endpoints
with Zero-Config, conferencing, auto attendant configuration, analog/VoIP trunks, routing inbound/outbound
calls and voicemail/fax to email setup.
For detailed information in regard to parameters that are encountered in this guide, please check the
UCM6200 series User Manual
SETUP GUIDE SCENARIO
The image below shows the most typical setup where you have the UCM6200 series WAN port connected to
the Internet and the LAN side of the UCM6200 series providing DHCP.
We will use this scenario to setup a Grandstream GXP2135 which will be connected to the LAN side of the
UCM6200 series. There can also be a network switch connected to the LAN port of the UCM6200 series so
that there may be more than one device connected.

Access UCM6200 series Web Interface
Accessing the UCM6200 series web interface allows users to manage users and system settings locally as well
as remotely.
The IP address used to access the web UI depends on where the user’s computer is connected. If the computer
is connected to the same switch/router that the UCM6200 series WAN port is connected, then browse to the IP
address that is displayed on the UCM6200 series LCD. This address is the WAN IP. If the computer is
connected to the LAN side of the UCM6200 series, then users would browse to the default IP of the UCM6200
series which is 192.168.2.1. If connected successfully, the UCM6200 series login page will be displayed as
shown below.

CREATE USER EXTENSION
Configure Extension Range
First part of configuring the UCM6200 series should be about planning for expansion. Here are some questions
to think about when setting up extension ranges:
•How many users are in the office?
•Will there be departments within the office?
•Is this office interconnecting with another office?
Once there is a clear picture of how many users will be at each location, how departments are going to be
segmented and what is the expected growth of the company, a user can then configure the extension range.
Navigate to PBX Settings General Settings General.
Figure 4: Create User Extension – Extension Range

P a g e | 8
UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
In the figure above, the user extension range is set with a starting extension of 100 and ending at 195. This
allows up to 196 extensions to assign to users. We have also created a conference extension range from 196
to 199, which gives 4 conference bridges. Users can configure any extension range as they desire. Here we’ve
configured it to use three digit extensions with a leading 1.
Click “Save” at the bottom. Then remember to click on “Apply Changes” at the top so that our extension range
will be ready for the next steps.
Batch & Single User Creation
So now that there are extension ranges configured, we can now begin creating users to prepare for the
provisioning process. There are two methods of creating a user. One method would be creating a single user.
The other method would be creating a batch of users.
Steps on Adding Single User
1. Navigate to Extension / TrunkExtensions. For first time setups users will see “No Data”.
Figure 5: Create User Extension – Extensions
2. Click on “Add”.
3. Choose an Extension Type from the “Select Extension Type” dropdown.
4. On the “Create New Extension” screen, users can enter in quite a few options, but they are not required for
this tutorial. Click “Save” at the bottom of the page.

Figure 6: Create User Extension – Create New User
After clicking “Save” the Extensions page will display with the single SIP extension that was just created. Here
the user has the ability to edit the extensions by clicking the at the right.
Figure 7: Create User Extension – Created Single User
Steps on Adding Batch of Users
1. Navigate to Extension / TrunkExtensions.
2. Click on “Add”.
3. Choose “Batch” from “Select Add Method”.

P a g e | 10
UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
4. At the “Create New Extension” dialog, the user can specify the “Extension” which is the start extension
number and the number of extensions to generate by setting the “Create Number”. In this tutorial, we will
have a starting extension of 101 and have the UCM6200 series generate 5 extensions with a password
randomly generated. This would create extensions 101, 102, 103, 104 and 105.
Figure 8: Create User Extension – Batch Add User
5. Click “Save” on top right to have the UCM6200 series generate the extensions.
6. Next, a prompt will appear asking “Are you sure you want to create users: 101, 102, 103, 104 105”. Click
“OK”.
Figure 9: Create User Extension – Create User Prompt
At this stage, the Extensions page should look similar to this:

UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
PROVISIONING & ZERO CONFIG
Grandstream SIP Devices can be configured via Web interface as well as via configuration file through
TFTP/HTTP/HTTPS download. All Grandstream SIP devices support an XML format configuration file. The
UCM6200 provides a Plug and Play mechanism to auto-provision the Grandstream SIP devices in a zero
configuration manner by generating XML config file and having the phone to download it. This allows users to
finish the installation with ease and start using the SIP devices in a managed way.
To provision a phone, three steps are involved, i.e., discovery, assignment and provisioning. The UCM6200
creates XML config file to the detected/assigned Grandstream device and accomplishes the following
configurations on the device after the provisioning:
•A UCM6200 extension will be assigned and registered on the phone.
•SIP-related network settings such as "NAT traversal" and "Use Random Port" are configured on the
phone.
•Call settings such as "Dial Plan" and "Auto Answer".
•LDAP client configurations will be set up automatically on the phone to use the default LDAP directory
generated in the UCM6200 LDAP server.
This section explains how zero config works on the UCM6200. The settings for this feature can be accessed
via Web GUIValue-added FeaturesZero Config.
Auto Discovering
When referring back to our typical scenario in the beginning of this tutorial, we know that there is a GXP2135
connected to the LAN side of the UCM6200 series. The UCM6200 series LAN interface has DHCP enabled
and has assigned the GXP2135 with an IP address. By default, the IP assigned would be within the 192.168.2.X
range. When the UCM6200 series offers an IP address to the phone it also offers DHCP Option 66, which
provides the phone with a config server path that points to the UCM6200 series. All of Grandstream VoIP
devices have Option 66 turned on by default and this is how the GXP2135 was discovered by the UCM6200.
Upon being discovered, the GXP2135 will provide details about its MAC, IP Address, Version(Firmware),
Vendor, Model, Connection Status and Create Config.
By navigating to Value-added Features Zero Config Zero Config, a user will be able to see the discovered
device(s).

P a g e | 13
UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
Figure 11: Provisioning with Zero Config – Auto Discovery
Extension Assignment
In the Auto Provision settings, users have the option to enable “Automatically Assign Extension”. If enabled,
an extension will be created and assigned to the new device detected. This is a great feature if specific
extension assignment isn’t required, but for our setup we’ll work on manually assigning an extension to a
discovered device.
Navigate to Value-added Features Zero ConfigZero Config and click on for the discovered device.
The next screen provides details of the device and also allows a user to assign an extension. Since our
GXP2135 is a 4-line phone, the UCM6200 series gives us the option to assign 4 extensions to the phone.
Figure 12: Provisioning with Zero Config – Extension Assignment
Check Account 1 and select the desired extension, then click “Save”. Now the Zero Config page displays the
device with an extension assigned to it on Account 1.

UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
Figure 13: Provisioning with Zero Config – Manually Assigned Extension
After assigning an extension, the phone may be rebooted in order to pick up the configuration file from the
UCM6200 series. During this process, the phone will boot up, request for config file, download the config file,
then reboot once more in order to apply the changes.
After the phone is completely booted, navigate to PBXBasic/Call RoutesExtensions page to see the
extension status. The SIP status will show a green circle for a successful registration.

CONFERENCE BRIDGE
The UCM6200 supports conference bridge allowing multiple bridges used at the same time:
•UCM6202/6204 supports up to 3 conference bridges allowing up to 25 simultaneous PSTN or IP
participants.
•UCM6208 supports up to 6 conference bridges allowing up to 32 simultaneous PSTN or IP participants.
The conference bridge configurations can be accessed under Web GUI->Call
FeaturesConferenceConference. In this page, users could create, edit, view, invite, manage the
participants and delete conference bridges. The conference bridge status and conference call recordings (if
recording is enabled) will be displayed in this web page as well.
How to Set up a Conference Bridge
1. Click on “Create New Conference Room”.
2. At the “Create New Conference Room” screen, the Extension is automatically populated since the
extension range is in effect. Users can assign another number that is within the Conference Extension
range.
3. Next, uncheck the option “Public Mode”. This will make the password options available. Enter a numeric
password for an admin as well as the regular user password. In this example, the user enters 511511
as the user password and 510510 as the admin password.
Figure 15: Conference Bridge – Create New Conference Room
4. Click “Save” at the bottom then “Apply Changes” at the top.
We should now have a conference room created and the status page will display the following:

P a g e | 16
UCM6200 Basic Configuration Guide
Figure 16: Conference Bridge – New Conference Room Created
With the phone that was registered to the UCM6200 series, dial the conference room extension. For this
example, we will dial 196. The user will hear a prompt for the conference password. Depending on the user,
the regular password or admin password can be entered.
During a conference call, the admin can log in to the UCM6200 series and view the conference room status.
This provides the admin with details on which conference room is active, who the participants are and the
conference call’s current duration.
Besides status information, the admin has several conference management tools. By clicking the button,
the admin can invite other users to the conference. Clicking will kick the selected user from the conference.
When clicking button the admin will mute/unmute the specific user.
