To set up a server for event logs: Select System Log Setup Enable, select a logging severity level from the pulldown list, enable the Logging Host and Logging Console, and enter the IP address of the server in the space provided.

To designate an SNTP server for obtaining the date and time: Select SNTP Server Enable and enter the IP addresses for primary and secondary SNTP servers in the spaces provided.

To use the access point as an SNTP server: Select SNTP Server Disable, specify time values in the spaces provided, select the time zone from the pull-down list. If you check the Enable Daylight Saving check box, the time will adjust automatically for standard and daylight saving time. When the SNTP Server setting is disabled, date and time settings revert to the defaults after an access point is reset, affecting the accuracy of log reports. To avoid this situation, enable the SNTP server setting and allow the access point to obtain the date and time from an SNTP server. (The event log page will display the default time after a reset until the access point receives the correct information from the SNTP server.)
