The ZyWALL continues to use the following pre-defined list of NTP time servers if you do 
not specify a time server or it cannot synchronize with the time server you specified. 
When the ZyWALL uses the pre-defined list of NTP time servers, it randomly selects one 
server and tries to synchronize with it. If the synchronization fails, then the ZyWALL goes 
through the rest of the list in order from the first one tried until either it is successful or all the 
pre-defined NTP time servers have been tried.
