Configuring R5750 Time Synchronization
You can set the R5750 analyzer time manually, configure the R5750 to synchronize with
the PC’s time, or configure time synchronization with an NTP server.
Note
: The R5750 analyzer stores its time based on the Coordinated Universal Time
(UTC) and otherwise has no notion of local time-zones. Conversely, the web dialog
translates and displays the R5750 time based on the local time-zone setting of the PC.
To configure the R5750 time synchronization method:
1.
Click on the
Time Configuration
link in the left pane of the Administration
Console.
2.
In the
R5750 Device Time Configuration
window (main pane), select “
NTP
” as
the Time sync source.
3.
Enter the IP addresses for up to 3 NTP servers (you can find the NTP server list
at
https://www.ntppool.org/en/
4.
Select “
Continuous
” as the Time sync mode.
The R5750’s time is synchronized to the NTP server on a regular basis (the
interval is optimally determined automatically).
