Configuring Date and Time
The Date and Time screen is used to configure the NTP client parameters.
The NTP client is used as a means to receive the date and time from the network.
When the NTP server is properly configured and accessible, the device displays
the real date and time as was received from the NTP server, instead of the
system uptime, which is the default state.
