Enabling
the
Time
Settings
(NTP)
Use
the
Time
Settings
page
to
specify
the
Network
Time
Protocol
(NTP)
server
to
use
to
provide
time
and
date
information

time
and
date
information
manually.
NTP
is
an
Internet
standard
protocol
that
synchronizes
computer
clock
times
on
your
network.
NTP
servers
transmit
Coordinated
Universal
Time
(UTC,
also
known
as
Greenwich
Mean
Time)
to
their
client
systems.
NTP
sends
periodic
time
requests
to
servers,
using
the
returned
time
stamp
to
adjust
its
clock.
The
timestamp
is
used
to
indicate
the
date
and
time
of
each
event
in
log
messages.
See
http://www.ntp.org
for
more
information
about
NTP.
To
set
the
system
time

the
address
of
the
NTP
server
