If you select to change this, you will be prompted with each octet
(three-digit field) in brackets. You can change this, or press enter
to skip to the next field.
(192) 10.(168) 50.(000) .(128) 100
In the above example, we have changed the IP address to
10.50.0.100.
Once you make this change, you will have the option of selecting
the subnet mask (via CIDR selection representing the number of
bits in the prefix), and the gateway address.
Once all selections have been made, the Timeserver will display
the new settings and ask for confirmation to save it.
2 – Set/Change Passcode
This option allows you to set a passcode to restrict unauthorised
access to the Timeserver.
The passcode requires four characters made of Alpha (A-Z) and
numeric (0-9) characters. Lower case characters are converted
to upper case.
To disable passcode checking, enter a code of four zeros (0000).
3 – Set Broadcast
An SNTP broadcast is the transmission of an unsolicited SNTP
packet. Many SNTP clients can be configured to “listen” for these
broadcasts.
On a /24 class C network (subnet mask 255.255.255.0) with a
device IP address of 192.168.0.70, the broadcast address will take
the form 192.168.0.255. On a class B network, it would be
192.168.255.255. All broadcasts are on port 123.
In this menu, you have the option to send a single broadcast
(generally only used for testing purposes) and the option to set
the interval between broadcast transmissions. The broadcast
interval is set by the number of minutes between broadcasts.
A broadcast interval of zero will disable the broadcast.
