Time Protocol - 161
Time Protocol
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is an Internet standard protocol that synchronizes computer clock times
on your network. NTP servers transmit Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, also known as Greenwich Mean
Time) to their client systems. NTP sends periodic time requests to servers, using the returned time stamp
to adjust its clock.
The timestamp is used to indicate the date and time of each event in log messages.
See http://www.ntp.org for more general information on NTP.
The following sections describe how to configure the Professional Access Point to use a specified NTP
server:
• Navigating to Time Protocol Settings
• Enabling and Disabling a Network Time Protocol (NTP) Server
• Updating Settings
Navigating to Time Protocol Settings
To enable an NTP server, click the Advanced menu’s Time Protocol tab, and update the fields as described
below.
