2. On the AMP Setup > Network page, locate the Network Time Protocol (NTP) section. The Network Time
Protocol is used to synchronize the time between AMP and your network reference NTP server. NTP servers
synchronize with external reference time sources, such as satellites, radios, or modems.
NOTE: Specifying NTP servers is optional. NTP servers synchronize the time on the AMP server, not on individual access points.
To disable NTP services, clear both the Primary and Secondary NTP server fields. Any problem related to
communication between AMP and the NTP servers creates an entry in the event log.
