The Time Zone option is configurable on the AP’s/BHM’s Time Configuration page, and may be used to
offset the received NTP time to match the operator’s local time zone. When set on the AP/BHM, the offset
is set for the entire sector (AP/BHSs is notified of the current Time Zone upon initial registration). If a Time
Zone change is applied, the AP/BHSs are notified of the change in a best effort fashion, meaning some
AP/BHSs may not pick up the change until the next re-registration. Time Zone changes are noted in the
Event Log.
An AP/BHM which is receiving NTP date and time information from an NTP server or from a GPS
synchronization source may be used as an NTP server. Any client which has IP connectivity to the BHM
may request NTP date and time information from the AP/BHM. No additional configuration (other than the
AP/BHM receiving valid NTP data) is required to use the AP/BHM as an NTP server.
