NTP/timeserver configuration

The CX-6p-PoE has a real time clock/calendar which keeps track of the current
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). This battery-backed time and date setting can be
updated by regular Network Time Protocol (NTP) packets from a server connected to
the same network as the CX-6p-PoE. Alternately, the CX-6p-PoE can be set to actively
connect to a UTC server for routine clock/calendar updates. The default setting is to
accept NTP packets.
