Time Client

An accurate log timestamp is one of the requirements of the ICSA Labs firewall criteria (ver 3.0a). In order to maintain accurate timestamps in each log message, the firewall implements a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client. This allows the system to automatically synchronize its date and time with Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the international time standard. The system date and time are set and corrected automatically via the designated server(s).

Time Client Configuration Options

Primary Server IP Address:

Specifies the primary IP address of a “well-known” Network Time Protocol Server (NTPS).

Secondary Server IP Address:

Specifies the secondary IP address of a “well-known” NTPS. If the router does not receive a response from the primary NTPS, it will switch to the secondary.

To configure the Time Client:

1.On the main menu, click Advanced Setup, and then click Time Client.

The Time Client Configuration screen displays.

2.Enter the Primary Server IP Address for the time server.

3.If applicable, enter the Secondary Server IP Address for the time server.

4.To save the settings, click Apply.

Static Routes

Your SpeedStream DSL router directs data traffic by “learning” source and destination information, then building a routing table. In some cases, network mappings cannot be learned because of incompatible addressing schemes; or learned paths other than the desired source and destination may be possible. In these situations, Static Routes can be configured to map these pathways, eliminating the need for the router to learn them.

To add a static route:

1.On the main menu, click Advanced Setup, and then click Static Routes.

The Static Routes screen displays.

2.In the Destination box, enter the IP address of the destination server.
