To configure your access point to use a network time protocol (NTP) server, first enable the use of NTP, then select the NTP server you want to use. (To shut down NTP service on the network, disable NTP on the access point.)
Field | Description |
|
|
Network Time | NTP provides a way for the access point to obtain and maintain its time from |
Protocol | a server on the network. Using an NTP server gives your AP the ability to |
| provide the correct time of day in log messages and session information. |
| (See http://www.ntp.org for more general information on NTP.) |
| Choose to either enable or disable use of a network time protocol (NTP) |
| server: |
| • Enabled |
| • Disabled |
|
|
NTP Server | If NTP is enabled, select the NTP server you want to use. |
| You can specify the NTP server by host name or IP address, although using |
| the IP address is not recommended as these can change more readily. |
