Date/Time settings
Date and time can be set manually or using Network Time Protocol (NTP) to automatically synchro-
nize date and time of
wienet SDS
with a Time Server. Figure 28 shows the
Date/Time Settings
page.
The first part of the page is the latest
Current Date/Time

DD/Month/YYYY
HH:MM:SS
. The second part of the page is the
Time Zone Settings
. You can select your local
Time
Zone
from the drop-down list. The third part of the page is the
NTP Server
Settings
. In this part, you
can either enable the local NTP service inside
wienet SDS
by checking the option

part or automatically synchronize with a time server or
NTP server
. To enable
automatic time synchronization, please check the box behind the
Sync with NTP
Server option.
Then proceed to enter the IP address or host name for the

see section 5.4 Network settings, p. 19.
