Maintenance And Diagnostics - ETC Ion Xe Operating Manual

Learn Network Devices
Clicking this button will trigger the DHCP service to search the network for existing devices, and add
them to its table of known addresses. If you have equipment with statically assigned IP addresses in
your network, this will ensure the DHCP service does not serve out any IP addresses which conflict
with those devices.
Update Service (TFTP)
Clicking in the enable box will start the TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server.
Update File Path - This sets the directory where files are to be served through TFTP. This must
be the full path to the directory, including drive letter. For example: C:\etc\nodesbin
Time Service (SNTP)
Clicking in the enable box will start the SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) service. You determine
if the service is running as a client (receiving time messages) or as a server (sending time messages)
during the installation process.
Client/Server - When configured as a client, a desk will attempt to synchronize its time with
the rest of the devices in the system, by listening for time information and altering its own
clock. When configured as a server, a desk will serve out time to other devices on the net-
work, acting as a time "master"
ETC Net2 Time - With ETC Net2 Time enabled, the time server will periodically broadcast (as a
server) or receive (as a client) the current time, which is required by devices running the
ETCNet2 protocol, for example, Legacy Unison systems.
External Time Server - The External Time Server option allows you to synchronize your desk to
a third party time system at a specific IP address using the NTP or SNTP protocols. This allows
use of a specific time clock for time sync. This requires a high accuracy time clock on your net-
work.
External Server IP - If External Time Server is enabled, you will need to specify the IP address of
your external NTP or SNTP time server in this field.
