Configuring the system time in the Web interface

A correct system time setting is essential to communication and network management. System time allows you to display and set the device system time, time zone, and daylight saving time on the Web interface. The device supports setting system time through manual configuration and automatic synchronization of NTP server time.

Defined in RFC 1305, the NTP synchronizes timekeeping among distributed time servers and clients. The purpose of using NTP is to keep consistent timekeeping among all clock-dependent devices within a network so that the devices can provide diverse applications based on the consistent time.

The time of a local system that runs NTP can be synchronized to other reference sources and used as a reference source to synchronize other clocks.

Displaying the current system time
