GXV33XX Security Guide
OVERVIEW
This document presents a summary of security measures, factors, and configurations that users are
recommended to consider when configuring and deploying the GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350.
Note: We recommend using the latest firmware for latest security patches.
The following sections are covered in this document:
• Web UI/SSH Access
Web UI access is protected by username/password and login timeout. Two-level user management is
configurable. SSH access is supported for mainly troubleshooting purpose and it’s recommended to disable
it in normal usage.
• Device Control Security
The GXV33XX has multiple ways to limit the use for network settings, apps, and other settings if not
necessary for the end user.
• Security for SIP Accounts and Calls
The SIP accounts use specific port for signaling and media stream transmission. It also offers configurable
options to block anonymous calls and unsolicited calls.
• Network Security
The GXV33XX supports OpenVPN, 802.1X, Bluetooth and PC port for network access. OpenVPN secures
remote connection and 802.1X provides network access control. For Bluetooth and PC port, it’s
recommended to turn them off if not used.
• Security for GXV33XX Services
GXV33XX supports service such as HTTP/HTTPS/TFTP provisioning, TR-069, LDAP, as well as allows
ADB and FTP access. For provisioning, we recommend using HTTPS with username/password and using
password-protected XML file. For services such as ADB and FTP, we recommend disabling them if not
used to avoid potential port exposure.
• Deployment Guidelines for GXV33XX
This section introduces protocols and ports used on GXV33XX and recommendations for routers/firewall
settings.
This document is subject to change without notice.
Reproduction or transmittal of the entire or any part, in any form or by any means, electronic or print, for
any purpose without the express written permission of Grandstream Networks, Inc. is not permitted.

GXV33XX Security Guide
WEB UI/SSH ACCESS
GXV33XX Web UI Access
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 embedded web server responds to HTTP/HTTPS GET/POST requests.
Embedded HTML pages allow users to configure the device through a web browser such as Microsoft IE,
Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and etc. With this, administrators can access and configure all available
GXV33XX information and settings. It is critical to understand the security risks involved when placing the
GXV33XX phone on public networks and it’s recommended not to do so.
Web UI Access Protocols
HTTP and HTTPS are supported to access the GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 web UI and can be
configured under web UI → System Settings → Security Settings → Web/SSH Access. To secure
transactions and prevent unauthorized access, it is highly recommended to:
1. Use HTTPS instead of HTTP.
2. Avoid using well known port numbers such as 80 and 443.

User Login
Username and password are required to log in the GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 web UI.
Figure 2: GXV3370 Web UI Login
Notes :
• The factory default username for GXV3370/GXV3380 is “admin” and the default password is “admin”.
• For the GXV3350 The default administrator username is “admin” and the default random password can
be found at the sticker on the GXV3350.
The GXV3370 web UI require to change the default password at first time login.
Figure 3: GXV33XX Admin Password Change on first login
To change the password for default user "admin", navigate to System Settings → Security Settings →
User Info Management. The password length must between 6 and 32 characters. Strong password with
a combination of numbers, uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and special characters is always
recommended for security purpose:

GXV33XX Security Guide
Figure 4: Change the default password
User Management Levels
Two user privilege levels are currently supported:
• Admin
• User
Admin login has access to all of the GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350’s entire web UI pages and can execute
all available operations. User login has limited access to the web UI pages.
With user login, it is not allowed to configure the following settings:
• Account Settings
• Phone Settings → General Settings / Ringtone / Video Settings
• Network Settings → Advanced Network Settings
• System Settings → TR069
• Maintenance → Upgrade / Event Notification
• Value-added Service
Even if user login can access certain web UI pages, it has less options compared to admin login, such as
in System Settings → Security Settings page.
It is recommended to keep admin login with administrator only. And end user should be provided with user-
level login only, if ever they need web UI access.

SSH Access
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 allows access via SSH. This is usually not needed unless the
administrator or Grandstream support needs it for troubleshooting purpose. SSH access on GXV33XX is
enabled by default with port 22 used. It’s recommended to disable it for daily normal usage. If SSH access
needs to be enabled, changing the port to a different port other than the well-known port 22 is a good
practice.

interface of the phone.
• Unrestricted (default): configure all settings on the Settings
interface;
• Basic Settings Only: The Advanced Settings option will not be
displayed;
• Basic Settings & Network Settings: Only the Advanced Settings
option will not be displayed
• Constraint Mode (Recommended): users need to input admin user
password to configure Wireless & Network and Advanced Settings.
Note: When access control for keypad is limited to “Basic Settings Only”
or “Constraint Mode”, the Admin authentication will be mandatory to start
Factory Reset process.
Permission to
Install/Uninstall Apps
Configures the permissions for users to install/uninstall the applications.
• If set to "Allow" (default), the user is free to install/uninstall third-party
apps.
• If set to "Require admin password", the user need to input the
correct administrator password to install/uninstall third-party apps.
• If set to "Require admin password if the app source is unknown",
the user need to input admin password only when install apps from
unknown source, administrator password authentication is required
when the user uninstall third-party apps.
• If set to "Not allow" (Recommended), the user cannot install/uninstall
third-party apps.

GUI Config Tool Settings
The GUI config tool is an online tool designed to customize the configuration for devices. Here is the link
to the GUI config tool: http://tools.grandstream.com:8081
Figure 8: GUI Config Tool Settings GUI
From there, the administrator can build a customized file to remove access for certain apps and task bar
features. The tool would generate an XML file ( “gxv3370cust”, “gxv3380cust” or “gxv3350cust”) which
should be uploaded to your local HTTP/TFTP server. Then the user needs to configure the server address
as GUI Customization File URL under web UI → Maintenance → Upgrade → Config File to allow the file
to be uploaded to the GXV33XX.
Figure 9: Cust File Provision Page

GXV33XX Security Guide
SECURITY FOR SIP ACCOUNTS AND CALLS
Protocols and Ports
By default, after factory reset, the SIP account 1 is active. Since the default local SIP port is 5060 for Account
1, this allows user to make direct IP call even if the account is not registered to any PBX. If the user is not
using any account, it is recommended to uncheck the settings from web UI → Account → General
Settings → Account Active to deactivate Account 1.
Note that GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 supports up to 16 SIP accounts.
Below are the ports/protocols used on GXV33XX SIP accounts:
• SIP transport protocol:
The GXV33XX supports SIP transport protocol “UDP” “TCP” and “TLS”. By default, it’s set to “UDP”.
It’s recommended to use “TLS” so the SIP signaling is encrypted. SIP transport protocol can be
configured per SIP account under web UI → Account → Account x → SIP Settings. When “TLS” is
used, we recommend using “sips” instead of “sip” for SIP URI scheme to ensure the entire SIP
transaction is secured instead of “best-effort”.
Figure 10: Configure TLS as SIP Transport
Page 12
P a g e | 11
GXV33XX Security Guide
SIP TLS certificate, private key and password can be configured under GXV33XX web UI → System
Settings → Security Settings → SIP TLS.
Figure 11: SIP TLS Settings on GXV33XX
When SIP TLS is used, the GXV33XX also offers additional configurations to check domain certificate
and validate certificate chain. These settings can be found under web UI → Account → Account x →
Advanced Settings:
Figure 12: Additional SIP TLS Settings
Check Domain
Certificates
Sets the phone system to check the domain certificates if TLS/TCP is
used for SIP Transport. The default setting is "No".
Validate Certification
Chain
Configures whether to validate certification chain, when TLS/TCP is
configured for SIP Transport. If this is set to “Yes”, phone will validate
server against the new certificate list. The default setting is “No”.
• Local SIP port when using UDP/TCP:
Page 13
P a g e | 12
GXV33XX Security Guide
Starting from 5060 for account 1, the port numbers increase by 2 for account x. For example, 5062 is
the default local SIP port for account 2, 5064 for account 3, etc. The local SIP port can be configured
under web UI → Account → Account x → SIP Settings.
• Local SIP port when using TLS:
The SIP TLS port is the UDP SIP port plus 1. For example, if account 1’s SIP port is 5060, its TLS port
would be 5061.
• Local RTP port:
The default port value is 50040. The option can be configured from web UI → Phone Settings →
General Settings.
Below is the range the GXV33XX uses for RTP flow:
(N is from 0 to 15, representing SIP account 1 to 16).
▪ Audio RTP port : Port_Value+10*N
▪ Audio RTCP port : Port_Value+10*N+1
▪ Video RTP port : Port_Value+10*N+2
▪ Video RTCP port : Port_Value+10*N+3
▪ FEC RTP port : Port_Value+10*N+4
▪ FEC RTCP port : Port_Value+10*N+5
▪ BFCP Protocol port : Port_Value+10*N+6
▪ BFCP RTP port : Port_Value+10*N+8
▪ BFCP RTCP port : Port_Value+10*N+9
Anonymous/Unsolicited Calls Protection
If the user would like to have anonymous calls blocked, please go to GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 web
UI → Account → Account x → Call Settings and enable option “Intercept Anonymous Calls”. This will
automatically block the SIP call if the caller ID is anonymous.
Figure 13: Settings to Block Anonymous Call
Additionally, the GXV33XX has built-in mechanism that detects and stops the spam SIP calls from ringing
the phones. Please see below web UI → Account → Account x → Advanced Settings. It is
recommended to enable highlighted options to validate incoming SIP requests.

Figure 14: Settings to Block Unwanted Calls
Only Accept SIP
Requests from Known
Servers
Answers the SIP request from saved servers when set to “Yes”, only the
SIP requests from saved servers will be accepted; and the SIP requests
from the unregistered server will be rejected.
The default setting is “No”.
Check SIP User ID for
Incoming INVITE
Configures the phone system to check the SIP User ID in the Request
URI of the SIP INVITE message from the remote party. If it doesn't match
the phone's SIP User ID, the call will be rejected. The default setting is
“No”.
Authenticate Incoming
INVITE
Configures the phone system to authenticate the SIP INVITE message
from the remote party. If set to "Yes", the phone will challenge the
incoming INVITE for authentication with SIP 401 Unauthorized response.
The default setting is "No".
SIP Realm used for
Challenge INVITE &
NOTIFY
Configure this item to validate incoming INVITE, but you must enable
authenticate incoming INVITE first to make it take effect. You can verify
the NOTIFY information for the provision, including check- sync, resync
and reboot, but only when SIP NOTIFY authentication enabled first to
make it take effect.

GXV33XX Security Guide
SRTP
To protect voice communication from eavesdropping, the GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 phones support
SRTP for media traffic using AES 128&256. It is recommended to use SRTP if server supports it. SRTP can
be configured in web UI → Account → Codec Settings → RTP Settings.
Figure 15: SRTP Settings
SRTP Mode
Sets if the phone system will enable the SRTP (Secured RTP) mode. It
can be selected from dropdown list:
• Disable
• Enabled but not forced
• Enabled and forced
SRTP uses encryption and authentication to minimize the risk of denial of
service. (DoS). If the server allows to use both RTP and SRTP, it should
be configured as “Enabled but not forced”. The default setting is
“Disable”.
SRTP Key Length
Configures all the AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) key size within
SRTP. It can be selected from dropdown list:
• AES128&256 bit
• AES 128 bit
• AES 256 bit
If it is set to “AES 128&256 bit”, the phone system will provide both AES
128 and 256 cipher suite for SRTP. If set to “AES 128 bit”, it only provides
128-bit cipher suite; if set to “AES 256 bit”, it only provides 256-bit cipher
suite. The default setting is “AES128&256 bit”.
Enable SRTP Key Life
Time
Defines the SRTP key life time. When this option is set to be enabled,
during the SRTP call, the SRTP key will be valid within 231 SIP packets,
and phone will renew the SRTP key after this limitation. Default is “Yes”.

GXV33XX Security Guide
Bluetooth
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 supports Bluetooth for Bluetooth headset connection, file transferring
and handsfree mode for cell phones. By default, Bluetooth is disabled and it can be enabled from LCD. If
there is no Bluetooth device used with GXV33XX, it’s recommended to turn off Bluetooth so it’s not
discoverable by nearly Bluetooth devices.
PC Port Mode
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 has dual switched 10/100/1000Mbps ports. LAN port is for network
access and PC port has multiple mode. Assuming GXV33XX has network access, PC port mode has the
following setting under web UI → Network Settings → Advanced Network Settings → PC Port Mode
Figure 20: GXV33XX PC Port Mode
PC Port Mode
Enables and defines the PC port mode as below:
• When the PC port mode is set to “Enabled”, another network
device can obtain network access by connecting to GXV33XX’s
PC port.
• When the PC port mode is set to "Mirrored", the data packet sent
and received by the phone would go through the LAN port and PC
port at the same time. In this case, PC port is only used for
capturing debugging packets and unable to support network data
exchange.
A reboot is required to take effect. The default setting is "Enabled".
PC Port VLAN Tag
Defines the VLAN Identifier of the Layer 2 frame for PC port. This adds
the VLAN tag value on the target address received from the LAN port of
the phone then sends the value to the device connected to the PC port.
Note: VLAN tag value on the device connected to the PC port should be
the same as the VLAN tag value assigned to the PC port here.
PC Port Priority Value
Determines the Priority Code Point within a Layer 2 frame header for PC
port.
Note: If the administrator or user does not plan to use PC port for network device access or
troubleshooting purpose, it is recommended to set PC port mode to “Disable” so any connection through it
will be rejected.

GXV33XX Security Guide
SECURITY FOR GXV33XX SERVICES
Provisioning via Configuration File
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 supports downloading configuration file via HTTP/HTTPS/TFTP. Below
figure shows the options for config file provisioning.
Figure 21: GXV33XX Config File Provisioning
We recommend users to consider the following options for added security when deploying the GXV33XX
with provisioning.
- Config Upgrade Via: HTTPS:
By default, HTTPS is selected. This is recommended so the traffic is encrypted while travelling through
the network.
- HTTP/HTTPS User Name and Password:
This can be set up as required on the provisioning server when HTTP/HTTPS is used. Only when the
GXV33XX has the correct username and password configured, it can be authenticated by the
provisioning server and the config file can be downloaded.
- Authenticate Config file:
This sets the GXV33XX to authenticate configuration file before applying it. When set to “Yes”, the
configuration file must include P value P1 with GXV33XX’s administration password. If it is missed or
does not match the password, the GXV33XX will not apply the config file.
- XML Config File Password:
The GXV33XX XML config file can be encrypted using OpenSSL. When it’s encrypted, the GXV33XX
must supply the correct password in this field so it can decrypt XML configuration file after downloading
it. Then the configuration can be applied to the GXV33XX. Please note this feature is supported on
XML config file instead of the binary config file. Therefore, it’s recommended to use XML config file
format and encrypt it with this feature.

Firmware Upgrading
Similar to configuration file provisioning, GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 supports downloading firmware file
via HTTP/HTTPS/TFTP. The firmware file is encrypted and GXV33XX ensures only authentic, signed and
untampered firmware file can run. Here are the recommended settings for firmware downloading.
Figure 24: GXV33XX Firmware Upgrade Configuration
- Firmware Upgrade Mode: HTTPS.
HTTPS is recommended so the traffic is encrypted while travelling through the network.
- HTTP/HTTPS User Name and Password:
This can be set up as required on the provisioning server when HTTP/HTTPS is used. Only when the
GXV33XX has the correct username and password configured, it can be authenticated by the firmware
server and the firmware file will be downloaded.
- Validate Certificate Chain:
This configures whether to validate the server certificate when downloading the firmware/config file. If
set to "Yes", the phone will download the firmware/config file only from the legitimate server.
Note: Firmware process uses the same certificates upload path as the configuration file provision.

TR-069
TR-069 is enabled by default, which means the connection request port 7547 is open for TR-069 session.
If the user does not need TR-069 service, it’s recommended to disable it. When TR-069 is enabled and the
service is to be used, users can also consider using a different connection request port other than the well-
known port 7547 for security purpose.

GXV33XX Security Guide
FTP Server
FTP server is disabled by default on GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350. It can be enabled from LCD menu →
File Manager app. FTP service on GXV33XX uses port 2121. After the user enables FTP server and
connects to it, GXV33XX files can be browsed as screenshots from a remote PC. It is recommended to
disable the FTP server during normal usage, and only turn it on for specific purpose. Once done, please
disable the FTP server.

ADB Service
Android Debug Bridge (ADB) is a versatile command-line tool that allows users to communicate with
GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV335 for installing apps, debugging apps and running specific commands. To
enable ADB connection, users must turn on developer mode under LCD menu → Settings → System
security first and accept the RSA key from remote device to allow access. The port number used for ADB
connection is 5555. It is not recommended to enable developer mode if ADB connection is not needed.

GXV33XX Security Guide
LDAP
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV335 supports LDAP to obtain enterprise contacts from LDAP server. It’s
recommended to change the default ports and connection mode “LDAP” to “LDAPS” to protect and encrypt
LDAP queries and responses using SSL/TLS.
Figure 28: LDAP Settings
Syslog
The GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 supports sending Syslog to a remote syslog server. By default, it’s sent
via UDP and we recommend to change it to “SSL/TLS” so the syslog messages containing device
information will be sent securely over TLS connection.

GXV33XX Security Guide
SECURITY GUIDELINES FOR GXV33XX DEPLOYMENT
Often times the GXV3370/GXV3380/GXV3350 phones are deployed behind NAT. The network
administrator can consider following security guidelines for the GXV33XX to work properly and securely.
• Turn off SIP ALG on the router
On the customer’s router, it’s recommended to turn off SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway). SIP ALG
is common in many routers intending to prevent some problems caused by router firewalls by inspecting
VoIP packets and modifying it if necessary. Even though SIP ALG intends to prevent issues for VoIP
devices, it can be implemented imperfectly causing problems, especially in some cases SIP ALG
modifies SIP packets improperly which might cause VoIP devices fail to register or establish calls.
• Use TLS and SRTP for SIP calls
On the GXV33XX, it’s recommended to use TLS for SIP transport with “sips” in SIP URL scheme for
SIP signaling encryption, and use SRTP for media encryption. Below table lists all the SIP ports and
RTP ports used on the GXV33XX if the network administrator needs to create firewall rules.

Note: On the customer’s firewall, it’s recommended to ensure SIP port is opened for the SIP accounts
on the GXV33XX. It’s not necessary to use the default port 5060/5062/… on the firewall. Instead, the
network administrator can consider mapping a different port on the firewall for GXV33XX SIP port 5060
for security purpose.
• Use HTTPS for web UI access
GXV33XX Web UI access should be equipped with strong administrator password in additional to using
HTTPS. Also, do not expose the GXV33XX web UI access to public network for normal usage.
• Use HTTPS for firmware downloading and config file downloading
Use HTTPS for firmware downloading and provisioning. Besides that, set up username and password
for the HTTP/HTTPS server to require authentication. It’s also recommended to turn on “Validate
Certification Chain” so the GXV33XX will validate server certificate when downloading the firmware or
config file.
