System
On this screen you can define parameters related to error logging, time settings and the network name of
the Intellinet access point.
General Settings:
Displays the current system time, allows to
synchronize the time with your computer’s
web browser, displays the current network
name of the access point (default
‘Intellinet300NPoE’), as well as the time
zone.
Time Synchronization:
The Intellinet access point doesn’t have a real‐time clock or a CMOS battery,
and because of this, every time it loses power, the clock resets to a default
date. To prevent this from happening, ,you can use NTP to get the time from
the internet. Note that setting up NTP is not required for the Intellinet access
point to function, but it can make troubleshooting easier when you’re looking at timestamped log files.
Enable the NTP client to activate this feature. When
activated, the Intellinet access point will provide you
with a list of four possible NTP servers. These are good
choices in general.
The option “Provide NTP server” can be activated, to
turn the Intellinet access point into an NTP relay SERVER.
That means, it’ll forward NTP requests from clients in
your network to an external NTP server.
Logging:
The Intellinet access point has the ability to create a history log of important events. These logs can be
stored either in the device own memory, or on an external server using the Syslog protocol, which is a
standard for forwarding log messages in an IP network.
