Field

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

Use Time

During boot procedure the P201 can connect to a time server to calibrate its system clock.

Server when

You can choose which time protocol is preferred. Toggle and select Daytime (RFC-867);

Bootup

Time (RFC-868), NTP (RFC-1305)or None. The former two protocols use TCP protocols

 

 

and the third one uses UDP protocol.

 

 

 

 

The main differences between them are the format, e.g., the Daytime (RFC 867) format is

 

 

day/month/date/year/time zone of the server while the Time (RFC-868) format gives a 4-byte

 

 

integer giving the total number of seconds since 1/1/1970 at 0:0:0. The NTP (RFC-1305)

 

 

format is similar. Not all timeservers support all protocols, so you may have to check with

 

 

your ISP/network administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works. If you select

 

 

None (this is the default value), you can enter the time manually but each time the system is

 

 

booted, the time & date will be reset to: 1/1/1970 0:0:0

 

 

Time Server

Enter the IP address of the selected time server. If you choose None then this field is N/A.

IP Address

once you assign an IP address of a time server (e.q. an UNIX server), then the Prestige will

 

 

get the date, time, and time-zone information from this server.

 

 

New Time

Enter the new time of the place where the P201 is located in hour, minute and second format.

New Date

Enter the new date of the place where the P201 is located in year, month and, date and

format.
