Time Sync
Time synchronization is an essential element for any business that relies
on an IT system. The reason for this is that these systems all have clocks
that are the source of time for files or operations they handle. Without time
synchronization, time on these systems varies with each other or with the
correct time and this can cause-, firewall packet filtering schedule
processes to fail, security to be compromised, virtual server works in
wrong schedule.
Click TIME SYNC.
There are two synchronization modes:
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
and synchronization with PC. For
synchronization with PC, select Sync
with PC. The gateway will synchronize
the time with the connecting PC.
SNTP is the acronym for Simple
Network Time Protocol, which is an
adaptation of the Network Time
Protocol (NTP) used to synchronize
computer clocks in the Internet. SNTP
can be used when the ultimate
performance of the full NTP
implementation is not required.
For SNTP, select SNTP v4.0.
SNTP service: Enable
Time Server: Any of the time servers
around the world can be used but it is
suggested to use a timeserver nearby.
Time Zone: you have to choose the
right time zone.
Press Finish to finish the setup. The browser will prompt the configured parameters and check it
before writing into EPROM.
