Description

 

 

 

 

 

Source Interface

 

The source address for all packets sent to an NTP server. This setting might

 

 

 

be necessary when the NTP server cannot respond to the address from which

 

 

 

the packet originated (for example, due to a firewall). The source interface

 

 

 

must have an IP address.

 

 

 

If you do not define a value in this field, the address of the outgoing interface

 

 

 

is used.

you can define an interface role object.

 

 

 

Note The source interface defined in this field is a global setting that you
