GSPBX provide guides on how to setup your whole Grandsream VoIP phone system. We'd like to begin our Grandstream VoIP tutorial proper by introducing the Grandstream UCM. The UCM abbreviation stands for Unified Communications Manager. Most of the guides here will focus on either the Grandstream 6202 or its 6204 versions.
Just like any other products in the tech market, the Grandstream UCM is a trash if you don't know how to use it. But once you are able to tap into its capabilities, GSPBX guarantees that you'll get hooked in fiddling with your configurations. A UCM is also commonly called as IP PBX.
The Grandstream UCM will also have a small LCD that will show the IP address that it is currently using to connect to your home or office network. You'll use this IP address to access the GUI (Graphical User Interface) of your Grandstream UCM.
