How Do I Configure the Cable Modem Gateway?
Setup Basic Settings - Enable/Disable Time Synchronization by Network Time Protocol Page Description
The following table provides a description of the fields within the Basic Settings Enable/Disable time synchronization by Network Time protocol page.
Field Name | Description |
Current System Time | Displays the current system time and date |
|
|
Network Time Protocol | Allows you to enable or disable network time |
| protocol |
| Note: The cable modem gateway will |
| automatically use the time server in your |
| broadband network. Should there be no current |
| time displayed or if the network time is incorrect, |
| enable Network Time Protocol to use a public |
| Internet time server to set the clock in the gateway. |
|
|
Latest Update Success | Displays the time and date of the last successful |
| time update |
|
|
Time Zone | Displays the current time zone. The |
| list allows you to select your local time zone. |
|
|
Daylight Saving Time | Allows you to adjust the time during periods |
| when Daylight Saving Time is in effect. Check the |
| Enable box to enable or disable this setting. |
| Note: If the offset for Daylight Savings Time is |
| other than 60 minutes, enter the offset in the |
| minutes field. |
|
|
Time Server | Add and delete time server URLs or IP addresses |
| to and from the list, as required. When using |
| Network Time Protocol, multiple time servers can |
| be specified for the gateway to query for time of |
| day. The gateway will sequentially step through |
| the listed time servers until it acquires the current |
| time. There are three well known public time |
| servers entered as default servers. |
