Network Time Protocol (NTP) Settings
On the AMP Setup > Network page, locate the Network Time Protocol (NTP) section. The Network Time
Protocol is used to synchronize the time between AirWave and your network’s NTP server. NTP servers synchronize
with external reference time sources, such as satellites, radios, or modems.
NOTE: Specifying NTP servers is optional. NTP servers synchronize the time on the AirWave server, not on individual access points.
To disable NTP services, clear both the Primary and Secondary NTP server fields. Any problem related to
communication between AirWave and the NTP servers creates an entry in the event log. Table 16 describes the
settings and default values in more detail. For more information on ensuring that AirWave servers have the correct
time, please see http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/NTPPoolServers.
Setting Default Description
Primary ntp1.yourdomain.com Sets the IP address or DNS name for the primary NTP server.
Secondary ntp2.yourdomain.com Sets the IP address or DNS name for the secondary NTP server.
