4.2.6 NTP Configuration
Configuring NTP on this page.
NTP is an acronym for Network Time Protocol, a network protocol for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems. NTP
uses UDP (data grams) as transport layer. You can specify NTP Servers and set GMT Time zone. The NTP Configuration
screen in
Figure 4-2-8 appears.
Figure 4-2-8: NTP Configuration Page Screenshot
The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
 Mode Indicates the NTP mode operation. Possible modes are:

Enabled : Enable NTP mode operation. When NTP mode operation is
enabled, the agent forwards NTP messages between the clients and the
server when they are not on the same subnet domain.

Disabled : Disable NTP mode operation.
 Timezone Allows to select the time zone according to current location of switch.

Server # Provide the NTP IPv4 or IPv6 address of this switch. IPv6 address is in 128-bit
records represented as eight fields of up to four hexadecimal digits with a colon
separating each field (:).
For example, 'fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7'. The symbol '::' is a special syntax that
can be used as a shorthand way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of
contiguous zeros; but it can appear only once. It can also represent a legally valid
IPv4 address. For example, '::192.1.2.34'.

Configure UPnP on this page.
UPnP is an acronym for Universal Plug and Play. The goals of UPnP are to allow devices to connect seamlessly and to
simplify the implementation of networks in the home (data sharing, communications, and entertainment) and in corporate
environments for simplified installation of computer components. The UPnP Configuration screen in
Figure 4-2-9 appears.
