Time Sync

Time synchronization is an essential element for any business that relies on an
IT system. The reason for this is that these systems all have clocks that are the
source of time for files or operations they handle. Without time synchronization,
time on these systems varies with each other or with the correct time and this
can cause-, firewall packet filtering schedule processes to fail, security to be
compromised, system log exposures with wrong data.
Click TIME SYNC.
There are two synchronization
modes: Sample Network Time Protocol (SNTP) and synchronization with PC.
For synchronization with PC, select Sync with PC. The gateway will synchro-
nize the time with the connect-
ing PC.
SNTP is the acronym for Simple
Network Time Protocol, which is
an adaptation of the Network
Time Protocol (NTP) used to
synchronize computer clocks in
the Internet. SNTP can be used
when the ultimate performance
of the full NTP implementation.
