4.6 Configuring Network Time Protocol (NTP)

Network Time Protocol (NTP) manages time and/or network clock synchronization in the access point-
managed network environment. NTP is a client/server implementation. The access point (an NTP
client) periodically synchronizes its clock with a master clock (an NTP server). For example, the access
point resets its clock to 07:04:59 upon reading a time of 07:04:59 from its designated NTP server.
Set a maximum threshold for the average number of retries for
each device.
Enter a maximum threshold for the total percentage of packets
dropped for each device. Dropped packets can be caused by poor
RF signal or interference on the channel.
Define a maximum threshold for the total percentage of packets
undecryptable for each device. Undecryptable packets can be the
result of corrupt packets, bad CRC checks or incomplete packets.
Set a maximum threshold for the total number of MUs associated
with each device.

device before an SNMP rate trap is sent. Motorola recommends
using the default setting of 1000 as a minimum setting for the field.
