The System > Time page defines the time and date settings to time stamp log events, to automatically update SonicWALL Security Services, and for other internal purposes.
By default, the SonicWALL security appliance uses an internal list of public NTP servers to automatically update the time. Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol used to synchronize computer clock times in a network of computers. NTP uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to synchronize computer clock times to a millisecond, and sometimes to a fraction of a millisecond.
