Time
Use the options on the
Time Setting
page (FIG. 41) to enable Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP).
SNTP allows the WAP-250G to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a time server
(SNTP or NTP).
Maintaining an accurate time on the WAP-250G enables all system log messages to be stamped with the
correct time and date. If the clock is not set, the WAP-250G only records the time from the factory
default set at the last bootup.
The WAP-250G acts as an SNTP client, which periodically sends time synchronization requests to a
specific time server. SNTP uses Coordinated Universal Time (or UTC, formerly Greenwich Mean Time,
or GMT) based on the time at the Earth’s prime meridian, zero degrees longitude. To display the time
corresponding to your local time, you must also indicate the number of hours your time zone is located
before or after UTC/GMT (FIG. 42).
Click on the
SNTP
link at the top of the page to access the following options:
SNTP Server
Setting: Configures the WAP-250G to operate as an SNTP client. When
enabled, the time server IP address must be specified.
Primary Server
: The IP address of an SNTP or NTP time server that the WAP-250G attempts
to poll for a time update.
Time Zone
: Sets the number of hours your local time zone is located before or after UTC/
GMT. (Default: GMT+00)
Daylight Saving
: The WAP-250G provides a way to automatically adjust the system clock for
Daylight Savings Time changes. To use this feature you must define the month and date to
begin and to end the change from standard time. During this period the system clock is set
back by one hour.
