Once the list of network clocks is populated, all the clocks or individual clocks may be selected for configuration.
1. Broadcast IP – This is the address used to query all network clocks. The default is set to 255.255.255.255. This may
be set to the subnet that the network clock(s) are configured to reduce network traffic.
2. Refresh List – This button is used to populate the list of network clocks using the Broadcast IP entered.

Pressing Refresh List, after selecting the desired groups, will display the clocks assigned to the selected groups.
