Synchronize with SNTP server
2
If the LDAP server supports Kerberos Authentication, and if you choose Kerberos for the Authentication, you
must configure the SNTP protocol (network time server), or you must set the date, time and time zone
correctly on the control panel for Kerberos Authentication. The time must match the time on the server used
for the Kerberos Authentication.
SNTP is the protocol used to synchronize the time used by the machine for Authentication with the SNTP
time server (this time is not the time displayed on the LCD of the machine). You can synchronize the time
used by the machine on a regular basis with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) provided by the time
server.

Primary SNTP Server Address, Secondary SNTP Server Address
Enter the server address (up to 64 characters).
The Secondary SNTP server address is used as a backup to the Primary SNTP server address. If the
Primary server is unavailable, the machine will contact the Secondary SNTP server. If you have a
Primary SNTP server, but no Secondary SNTP server, simply leave this field blank.
