Black Box 11.4 Configuration Backup

 Manually set the Year, Month, Day, Hour and Minute using the Date and Time selection boxes,
then click Set Time.
The gateway can synchronize its system time with a remote time server using the Network Time
Protocol (NTP). Configuring the NTP time server ensures that the console server clock will be accurate
soon after the Internet connection is established. Also if NTP is not used, the system clock will reset
randomly every time the console server is powered up. To set the system time using NTP:
 Select the Enable NTP checkbox on the Network Time Protocol page.
 Enter the IP address of the remote NTP Server and click Apply Settings.
You must now also specify your local time zone so the system clock can show local time (and not UTP):
 Set your appropriate region/locality in the Time Zone selection box and click Apply.
