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.
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.
