Description
"Time Zone"
From the drop-down list, select one of the prede-
fined time zones. The time zone is set to
(+01:00)
Europe - Berlin
by default, but you can adjust
the settings to one of the other values as necessary.
"Current Time"
Check the current system date (MM/DD/YYYY) and
time (hh:mm:ss) of the gateprotect Firewall.
"Date & Time"
Optional: Click the input field to set a new system
date or time manually. A pop-up window with a cal-
ender and input fields for changing the date and
time opens. You can enter a date in the MM/DD/
YYYY format or use the date picker to set a new
date. You can also set a new time by entering the
time in the hh:mm:ss format.
Note:
To set the system time manually, NTP has to
be disabled (in other words, the "NTP Client" check-
box must be cleared). Otherwise, the time will be
reset automatically when the system sends the next
NTP request.
"NTP Client"
Optional: Select the checkbox to use remote net-
work time protocol servers to set the system date
and time automatically.
"NTP Servers"
Optional and only available if the "NTP Client"
checkbox is selected: You can either use the prede-
fined NTP servers or add your own NTP servers to
the list.
The standard NTP servers are:
You can add as many NTP servers as you like.
Enter the IP address or the fully qualified domain
name of an NTP server in the input field. Then click
"Add" to put the NTP server on the list.
You can edit or delete each single entry in the list by
clicking the appropriate button next to an entry. For
further information, see
Note:
If you edit an NTP server, a check mark
appears on the right of the entry. Click the check
mark to be able to save the settings of the NTP
server.
Note:
If more than one NTP server is configured,
the gateprotect Firewall automatically synchronizes
the system clock with the server that transmits the
best time signal.
"Serve as local NTP server"
Optional and only available if the "NTP Client"
checkbox is selected: Select the checkbox if you
want to make the system time of the gateprotect
Firewall available in the internal network. The gate-
protect Firewall then acts as an internal, local NTP
server.
If you modify the settings, click "Save" to store your changes or "Reset" to discard
them. Otherwise, click "Close" to shut the editor panel.
