SNTP Unicast Server
Overview
Synchronized system clocks provide a frame of reference between all devices
on the network Network time synchronization is critical because every
aspect of managing, securing, planning, and debugging a network involves
determining when events occur Without synchronized clocks, accurately
correlating log files between devices when tracking security breaches or
network usage is impossible
Synchronized time also reduces confusion in shared file systems, as it is
important for the modification times to be consistent, regardless of the
machine on which the file systems reside
For these reasons, it is important that the time configured on all of the devices
on the network is accurate
NOTE:
The device supports Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) and when
enabled, the device dynamically synchronizes the device time with time
from an SNTP server The device operates only as an SNTP client, and cannot
provide time services to other devices
