Configuring an NTP server connection

To configure an NTP server connection:

Click Edit.

4.

Select Enable NTP.

5.

Enter the IP addresses of the NTP in the NTP Server fields.

6.

Specify the frequency with which the SKM will poll the NTP server(s). If you enter a value that is not

a multiple of 5, the SKM will round down to the nearest multiple of 5.

7.

Click Save.

Manually synchronizing with an NTP server

IP authorization procedures

Specifying which clients can connect to the SKM

The IP authorization feature enables you to control which clients can connect to the SKM and what

services they can access.
To specify which clients can connect to the SKM:

1.

Log in to the Management Console as an administrator with Network and Date/Time access control.

2.

Navigate to the Allowed Client IP Addresses section of the Network Configuration page (Device >

Network > IP Authorization).

3.

Click Add.

4.

Enter a single IP address, a range of addresses, or a subnet in the IP Address, Range, or Subnet field.

5.

Select the services that will be available to this client using the KMS Server, Web Administration,

and SSH Administration fields.

NOTE:

You can grant access to various features but you cannot explicitly deny access to a specific

client. In the event that a specific IP is listed individually

and

as part of a group, that IP

address acquires the sum of listed permissions.

6.

Click Save.

7.

Repeat steps 3 through 6 as needed.
