To configure your access point to use a network time protocol (NTP) server, first enable the use of NTP, 
and then select the NTP server you want to use. (To shut down NTP service on the network, disable 

NTP on the access point.) 

NTP provides a way for the access point to obtain and maintain its 

time from a server on the network. Using an NTP server gives your 

AP the ability to provide the correct time of day in log messages and 

session information. 

For more information on NTP, see http://www.ntp.org.

Choose to either enable or disable use of a network time protocol 
(NTP) server: 

  To enable the NTP server, click Enabled. 

  To disable the NTP server, click Disabled. 

If NTP is enabled, select the NTP server you want to use.

 

You can specify the NTP server by host name or IP address, 

although using the IP address is not recommended as these can 

change more readily. 

If enabled, the device will synchronize time with NTP server 

automatically. 

If Synchronize Automatically is enabled, the device will synchronize 

time with the NTP server at each specified interval. 

The interval is set in minutes. 

Specify the time zone where the device locates.  The time zone 

determines the local time when the device is synchronizing time 

with the NTP server. 

After Now is clicked, your setting will be submitted and the device 

will synchronize time with the NTP server immediately. 

 

To update time settings: 

1.  Navigate to the Time tab page. 

2.  Configure the time settings as required. 

3.  Click the Update button to apply the changes.
