pool servers are specified by geography. The following table shows the naming convention for servers specified by
continent:
Table 26:
Worldwide
Asia
Europe
North America
Oceania
South America
To use the continent-based NTP pool servers for Europe, for example, you could specify the following pool servers
in Equalizer's time configuration screen:
0.europe.pool.ntp.org
1.europe.pool.ntp.org
2.europe.pool.ntp.org
You can also specify servers by country. So, for example, to specify a UK based time server pool, you would use:
0.uk.pool.ntp.org
1.uk.pool.ntp.org
2.uk.pool.ntp.org
Or, for the US, you would use:
0.us.pool.ntp.org
1.us.pool.ntp.org
2.us.pool.ntp.org
Be careful when using country based NTP pool servers, since some countries contain a very limited number of time
servers. In these cases, it is best to use a mix of country and continent based pool servers. If a country has only one
time server, then it is recommended you use a time server pool based in another nearby country that supports more
servers, or use the continent based server pools.
For example, Japan has 6 (six) time servers as of the date this document was published. The organization that
maintains time server pools recommends using the following to specify time server pools for Japanese locations:
2.jp.pool.ntp.org
0.asia.pool.ntp.org
2.asia.pool.ntp.org
