Description
From the drop-down list, select the local time zone in which the UTM operates.
The correct time zone is required in order for scheduling to work correctly. The
UTM includes a real-time clock (RTC), which it uses for scheduling.
If daylight savings time is supported in your region, select the Automatically
Adjust for Daylight Savings Time check box.
From the drop-down list, select an NTP server:
• Use Default NTP Servers. The UTM regularly updates its RTC by
contacting a default NETGEAR NTP server on the Internet.
• Use Custom NTP Servers. The UTM regularly updates its RTC by
contacting one of two custom NTP servers (primary and backup), both of
which you need to specify in the fields that become available with this
selection.
Note: If you select the Use Custom NTP Servers option but leave either the
Server 1 or Server 2 field blank, both fields are set to the default NETGEAR NTP
servers.
Note: A list of public NTP servers is available at
http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/WebHome.
