Basic Settings - Time and Date
Time Setup:
The LinkStation time must be
set correctly to maintain logs and to schedule
backups. Input the time and date or press
the
Get Current Date & Time
button to set
LinkStation’s time to the same time as the
PC that is being used to configure it. Check
the
Daylight Savings Time
checkbox if your
region is currently in DST. This will have to be
unchecked in the fall and checked again in the
spring each year. Select the appropriate region
from the
Character Codes
pull down menu.
This activates LinkStation’s International
Character Support.
NTP Settings:
NTP lets the LinkStation poll a network time server to set its time automatically.
Once enabled, an IP Address of a NTP Server is required. A domain name will not work in this
field; an IP Address is required. Buffalo recommends use of (time.nist.gov)
192.43.244.18
as an
Internet NTP Server.
Sychronized Interval
sets how often time will be checked.
Press the appropriate
Apply
to save any changes.
