To configure the Cisco VCS with an NTP server, enter the IP address or FQDN (or server address, if
a DNS Domain name has also been configured) of the NTP server to be used when synchronizing
system time.

The NTP server field defaults to one of four NTP servers provided by Cisco, either:
0.ntp.tandberg.com, 1.ntp.tandberg.com, 2.ntp.tandberg.com or 3.ntp.tandberg.com.

The connection status to the NTP server is shown in the Status section.
Cisco VCS time display and time zones
Local time is used throughout the web interface. It is shown in the system information bar at the
bottom of the screen and is used to set the timestamp that appears at the start of each line in the
Event Log and Configuration Log.

Internally, the Cisco VCS maintains its system time in UTC. It is based on the Cisco VCS's operating
system time, which is synchronized using an NTP server if one is configured. If no NTP server is
configured, the Cisco VCS uses its own operating system time to determine the time and date.

Specifying your local Time zone lets the Cisco VCS determine the local time where the system is
located. It does this by offsetting UTC time by the number of hours associated with the selected time
zone. It also adjusts the local time to account for summer time (also known as daylight saving time).

The Time page displays both UTC and local time in the Status section. Note that a UTC system
timestamp is included at the end of each entry in the Event Log and Configuration Log.

image to appear on the login page for both users and administrators.
The Welcome message title and text will appear to administrators when attempting to log in using
the CLI, and to FindMe users and administrators when attempting to log in using the web interface.

Configuring external manager settings
The External manager page (
System > External manager
) allows you to configure the Cisco VCS's
external manager settings.
An external manager is a remote system, such as the Cisco TelePresence Management Suite (Cisco
TMS), used to monitor events occurring on the Cisco VCS, for example call attempts, connections
and disconnections. The use of an external manager is optional.
