Subtask: Synchronize Time Between the Cisco IP 4200 Sensor and PCM+
You should synchronize the time between the Cisco 4200 Series Sensor and PCM+. Doing so
makes it much easier to identify an event at the sensor as the same one that is received at the
management station. In a small network you might be able to synchronize the clocks manually,
but in a large network you will probably find it useful to synchronize your switches, sensors,
and management station with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
To configure time settings on the Cisco device, complete the following steps:
1. Return to the Cisco 4200 Series Sensor’s Web browser interface and click Configuration in
the toolbar.
2. At the bottom of the navigation bar, click the Sensor Setup tab.
3. At the top of the navigation bar, select Time.

4. Configure the date, time, and time zone, or specify an SNTP server.
5. Click Apply.
