Other Network Settings
Set the following according to your network environment.
Making SNTP Settings
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) enables you to adjust the system clock by using the time server on the network. If SNTP is used, the time server is checked at the specified intervals; therefore, the correct time can always be maintained. SNTP settings can be specified via the Remote UI.
|
To perform time synchronization via SNTP with the NTP server, setting the time zone where the machine is used is required in advance. Setting the Date/Time If SNTP is not set, the machine may access an external SNTP server to synchronize the clock when certain services are used. |

[NTP Server Address]
Enter the IP address of the NTP or the SNTP server. If DNS is available on the network, you can enter a host name (or FQDN) consisting of alphanumeric characters instead (example: ntp.example.com).

[Check NTP Server Connection]
You can check the communication status between the machine and a registered server by using SNTP. However, only the communication status is confirmed and time adjustment is not carried out.
