5.16 Configuring Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) Client
Configuring your device as an SNTP client allows you to obtain accurate
time/date information from an associated SNTP server. If you are not attached
to an SNTP server, you can set the time/date on your own device instead.
To configure the SNTP Client settings, go to Configuration menu and click on SNTP client.
The SNTP client page is displayed.
This page displays the default SNTP Client settings:
• Universal Time Coordinate (UTC), with no SNTP server set or synchronized to
• Synchronization mode disabled.
• Received packet response timeout value set to 5 seconds, and retry value set
to 2.
To configure SNTP:
1 At the NTP servers section, add the NTP server that you want your client to
obtain information from.
2 At the SNTP Client Mode Configuration Parameters section, select the SNTP
Synchronization mode(s) by clicking on the Unicast Mode Enabled, Anycast
Mode Enabled or the Broadcast Mode Enabled radio button. Click Set Mode.
