Basic Settings - Time and Date
Time Setup: The LinkStation time must be set correctly to maintain logs and to schedule backups. Input the time and date or press the Get Current Date & Time button to set LinkStation’s time to the same time as the PC that is being used to configure it. Check the Daylight Savings Time checkbox if your region is currently in DST. This will have to be unchecked in the fall and checked again in the spring each year. Select the appropriate region from the Character Codes pull down menu. This activates LinkStation’s International Character Support.
NTP Settings: The NTP function enables the LinkStation to poll a network time server to correct its time. Once enabled, an IP Address of a NTP Server is required. A domain name will not work in this field; an IP Address is required. Buffalo recommends use of (time.nist.gov) 192.43.244.18 as an Internet NTP Server. Sychronized Interval sets how often time will be checked.
