Configure NTP Server Settings

Network Time Protocol (NTP) synchronizes computer clock times across a network. On the System Settings > Configuration page, you can enable Dimension to use NTP to automatically get the correct time from NTP servers on the Internet, and specify which NTP servers to use to set the time on Dimension.

To unlock the configuration so you can make changes, click Screenshot of the Locken icon.
For more information about how to unlock and lock the Dimension configuration, go to Lock and Unlock the Dimension Configuration.

In the Time Settings section:

  1. For the NTP option, select Enabled.
  2. To add an NTP server, in the NTP Server text box, type the IP address or host name of the NTP server and click the Add button.
    The IP address or host name for the NTP Server appears in the NTP Servers list.
  3. To remove an NTP server from the NTP Servers list, select the IP address or host name of the NTP server and click the Delete button.
    The IP address or host name is removed from the list.

If there is a difference of more than 1000 seconds between the Firebox and NTP, you must reset the time manually.
