The NSS configuration interface appears, with the System Status page open:

5.It is a good idea to do a quick check of the information on the System Status page to ensure that your hardware installation was successful and that this system is not reporting any errors. For example, the Ethernet link(s) are up and in good condition, the right number of disk drives installed appear, and so on. For a detailed description of the information on the System Status page, click the Help button in the upper-right corner.

Step 3: Configure the Timing Settings

If you are installing the NSS within the Linksys One environment, the NSS time is automatically set via the Linksys NTP server.

When you first configure the NSS, ensure that the NSS has successfully synchronized the time with the NTP server. When the NSS is synchronizing with the NTP time server, the “Synchronizing time with NTP server” message appears and the Update button is grayed out. After the synchronization is complete, you can manually refresh the page by reselecting the NTP Configuration page from the Manager Menu. If the synchronization failed, the following occurs:

•An error message stating “Could not synchronize with NTP server(s)” appears in the NTP Configuration page.

•The system alert message “Could not synchronize with NTP server(s)” appears in the System Status page.

•If the SNMP traps are configured, an SNMP trap message is sent.
