7.6.9. NTP Configuration
All Fluidmesh radio transceiver units have a built-in clock.
No manual time-setting controls are provided. Instead, the unit has
network time protocol (NTP) functionality that allows it to synchronize its
time settings with a chosen internet time server. If the unit cannot
synchronize with its primary time server, and the host name of a backup
time server is entered, the unit defaults to synchronizing with the backup
server.
CAUTION
The same NTP configuration must be set for all Fluidmesh
units in the wireless network.
If the same NTP settings are not applied to all units, the
network may encounter timestamp conflicts and/or equipment
malfunctions.
To change the NTP settings, do the following steps:
1. Click the -ntp link under ADVANCED SETTINGS in the left-hand
settings menu.
• The NTP dialog will be shown (Figure 54 (page 109)).
Figure 54. Configurator GUI (NTP dialog)
2. Enable NTP synchronization by checking the Enable NTP check-
box.
3. Enter the host name of a chosen primary NTP server in the NTP
server hostname: field.
IMPORTANT
The NTP server host names shown in Figure 54
(page 109) are for reference purposes only. Your
company policy may dictate that you use one or more
specific time servers.
