Network Time Synchronization

These fields are used to synchronize network time using the host name or IP address of a known server to provide a synchronized time for all appliances in the network. To enable Network Time Synchronization after these parameters are set, go to Configuration: System > General on page 76 and check the box.

Note Network Administrators please note. DHCP Option 4 is used by the DHCP server to return SNTP server addresses. This option must be enabled in the DHCP server for these addresses to be returned to the VBrick. If the DHCP server configuration is unknown, it is recommended that the address(es) be manually entered since the DHCP server-supplied address will always override a manually-entered address.
