Grandstream GXW4216 GXW42XX on Asterisk (FreePBX)

In FreePBX create an SIP extension (I'm using SIP, not PJSIP)



Create an extension, give it the display and CID values you want.  The rest can remain as default.
Save / apply your changes.



(Screen shot of the advanced page, its default settings)


Go into your Grandstream GXW42XX 

Go to FXS PORTS -> Port Settings -> FXS X-X



Put in your Extension (s) information

(password will paste, but will show empty after you press Save and Apply

Now go to "PROFILES" (i'm using "Profiles 1" -> General Settings


I'm using a generic Asterisk FreePBX box, using SIP (not PJSIP)

Set the Profile Active to "YES"
SIP server is the IP/FQDN of your asterisk box with the :5061 at the end


Save and Apply the changes.

That really should be it.  I didn't change anything else for it to register and work.
