Description Component
Click inside the box to enable automatic NTP synchronization on the SKM. A check
mark inside the box denotes that the feature is enabled. When the NTP feature is
enabled, the SKM synchronizes the time with the time on the NTP servers at the interval
specified in the Poll Interval field.
NOTE:
When this feature is enabled, you cannot manually set the time or date on the
SKM.
Enable NTP
Specify the IP address of the NTP server on the network. You can list as many as three
NTP servers. When clocks are synchronized, the SKM polls all the servers listed to
determine the correct time.
NTP Server
The poll interval, expressed in minutes, is the length of time between consecutive polls.
The minimum value for this field is 5; the maximum value is 10080 (one week). This
value must be a multiple of 5. If you attempt to set a value that is not a multiple of 5,
the SKM rounds down to the nearest multiple of 5.
Poll Interval (min)

Click Synchronize Now to synchronize the clock on the SKM immediately.
NOTE:
The Synchronize Now button synchronizes the clock on the SKM even when
automatic NTP synchronization is not enabled.
