"Create" another text box "Address" appears where the user may enter Address for Server to be configured.
Address - Specifies the address of the SNTP server. This is a text string of up to 64 characters containing the
encoded unicast IP address or hostname of a SNTP server. Unicast SNTP requests will be sent to this address. If
this address is a DNS hostname, then that hostname should be resolved into an IP address each time a SNTP
request is sent to it.
Address Type - Specifies the address type of the configured SNTP Server address. Allowed type is :
IPV4
Default value is Unknown
Port - Specifies the port on the server to which SNTP requests are to be sent. Allowed range is (1 to 65535). Default
value is 123.
Priority - Specifies the priority of this server entry in determining the sequence of servers to which SNTP requests
will be sent. The client continues sending requests to different servers until a successful response is received or all
servers are exhausted. This object indicates the order in which to query the servers. A server entry with a
precedence of 1 will be queried before a server with a priority of 2, and so forth. If more than one server has the
same priority then the requesting order will follow the lexicographical ordering of the entries in this table. Allowed
range is (1 to 3). Default value is 1.
Version - Specifies the NTP Version running on the server. Allowed range is (1 to 4). Default value is 4.
