Configuration of date / time parameters (Step 6)

▪ Note: The VPN connection to the u-link VPN server will

use a certificate for encryption. Generally the validity of

a certificate depends on date/time stamps (valid

from/valid until). For this reason the Routers date and

time settings should be set to a current value. Due to

the fact that for an u-link access the Router always

must have an Internet connection it is recommended to

enable the time server synchronization (NTP) that the

Router automatically will update date and time. If no

time synchronization is possible then date and time

values have to be set manually.

➢ Go to menu Configuration → General settings → Date

& Time.

➢ Select your time zone.

➢ Enable checkbox ‘Time Server Synchronization’.

➢ Enter your preferred NTP servers or use the defaults

ones.

➢ Click button ‘Apply Settings’.
