Simple Network Time Protocol is an adaptation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) used to synchronize computers clocks on the internet. In this window you can clarify certain design features to ensure accurate and reliable operation.
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
Select Enable if your network uses SNTP.
If you want to turn SNTP off, select
Disable.
When SNTP is enabled, an SNTP Status field appears.
This field indicates whether SNTP is synchronized or unsynchronized.
Click Refresh to update this status.
Time Server (optional)
If your network has a default time server, enter
the server's IP address or host name.
SNTP Status
When you enable SNTP, this field displays the current status. Synchronized means the access point has been synched up with the distributed time server (NTP server). Unsynchronized means the access point is not synched up with the NTP server. This parameter appears only on the 1100 and 1200 access points.
GMT Offset
The GMT Offset drop-down menu lists the world's
time zones relative to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Select the time
zone in which the access point operates.
Use Daylight Savings
Time (United States Only)
Select yes to have the access point automatically
adjust to Daylight Savings Time.
Manually Set Date
Enter the current date to override the time server
or to set the date if no server is available. When entering the
date, use forward-slashes to separate the year, month, and day.
For example, you would enter 2001/02/17 for February 17, 2001.
Manually Set Time
Enter the current time to override the time server
or to set the time if no server is available. When entering the
time, use colons to separate the hours, minutes, and seconds. For
example, you would enter 18:25:00 for 6:25 pm.
