13.3.25.2 NTP Association

Network Time
The interaction between the access point and an NTP server constitutes an association. NTP associations can be

To view the access point's NTP association statistics:

Displays the round-trip delay (in seconds) for broadcasts between the NTP
server and the access point.
Displays the time difference between the peer NTP server and the access
point's clock.
Displays the calculated offset between the access point and the NTP server.

zero.
Displays the maximum interval between successive messages in seconds to
the nearest power of two.
