Selecting an NTP Server
We recommend that you specify NTP pool servers appropriate for your geographic location.
Selecting a pool server means that you are specifying an alias that is assigned by ntp.isc.org to a list
of time servers for a region. Thus, NTP pool servers are specified by geography. The following
table shows the naming convention for servers specified by continent:
To use the continent-based NTP pool servers for Europe, for example, you could specify the
following pool servers in Equalizer’s time configuration screen:
0.europe.pool.ntp.org
1.europe.pool.ntp.org
2.europe.pool.ntp.org
You can also specify servers by country. So, for example, to specify a UK based time server pool,
you would use:
Worldwide pool.ntp.org
Asia asia.pool.ntp.org
Europe europe.pool.ntp.org
North America north-america.pool.ntp.org
Oceania oceania.pool.ntp.org
South America south-america.pool.ntp.org
