How to Acquire Time

With the S100, you can choose your source of secure time.

Each of the time references described in this section is configured using the web-based interface’s Configuration Wizard.

First, log on.

Logging On

In your browser, enter the IP address of the S100 (use this format: “http://ipaddress”). Add the S100 home page to your ‘Favorites’ list for future convenience. If the link/icon is not present, in your browser address window, enter the S100 IP address <Enter>.

On your first log-in, the first screen you see is the System Status screen.

Figure 3-12:Initial System Status

The System Status screen gives you the status of the S100’s Timing, Uptime, and Versions.

The color of the box on the top left side of the screen is your guide. It follows the traffic light convention:

•Green = Normal Operation: The S100 is up and running with the correct time.

•Amber = Unsatisfactory: System not yet ready to issue time.

•Red = Unsatisfactory: Some settings still need attention before secure time can be issued.

Note: Log-ins after this first log-in will bring you to the last screen you accessed in your most recent session.
