System; Date And Time - CyberGuard SG300 User Manual

Date and Time

We recommend setting the CyberGuard SG appliance's clock to the correct date and
time, otherwise system log message time stamps do not match the time of the event. If
you are using certificates for SSL or IPSec, it is especially important that you set the date
and time correctly, as all certificates include an expiry date after which they do not
function.
Set date and time
If you have a Javascript enabled web browser, click the top Set Date and Time button to
synchronize the time on the CyberGuard SG appliance with that of your PC.
You may also set the date and time manually by selecting the Year, Month, Date, Hour
and Minute and clicking the bottom Set Date and Time button.
NTP time server
The CyberGuard SG appliance can synchronize its system time with a remote time
server using the Network Time Protocol (NTP). Configuring the NTP time server ensures
that the CyberGuard SG appliance's clock is accurate soon after the Internet connection
is established.
To set the system time using NTP, select the Set Time checkbox on the NTP Server
Configuration page and enter the IP address of the time server in the Remote NTP
Server field.
