Description

Indicates the NTP mode operation. Possible modes are:
Enabled: Enable NTP mode operation. When enable NTP mode operation,
the agent forward and to transfer NTP messages between the clients and
the server when they are not on the same subnet domain.
Disabled: Disable NTP mode operation.
• Time Zone
The difference between Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and local time.
For example, the Time Zone Offset for Paris is GMT +1, while the local time in
Taipei is GTM +8.
• 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 separates 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 only appear once. It also used a following legally IPv4 address. For example,
'::192.1.2.34'.
It is recommended that you research any time server selection to ensure that it can meet your
specific time server requirements. Any NTP time server selection should be evaluated to determine if
the server in question meets your specific time server requirements.
