Wizard step 6: Helper server settings

Optional NTP and Syslog servers can be enabled here in the wizard or configured later. Network

Time Protocol servers keep the system date and time accurate. Syslog servers can be used to

receive and store log messages sent by cOS Core.

For the default gateway, it is recommended to specify the IPv4 address assigned to the internal

network interface. In this setup, this corresponds to 192.168.1.1. The DNS server specified should

be the DNS supplied by an ISP.

When specifying a hostname as a server instead of an IP address, the hostname should be

prefixed with the string dns:. For example, the hostname host1.company.com should be entered

as dns:host1.company.com.
