An access point profile requires unique clock synchronization settings as part of its general
configuration.
Network time protocol (NTP) manages time and/or network clock synchronization within the access
point managed network. NTP is a client/server implementation. The access point periodically
synchronizes its clock with a master clock (an NTP server). For example, the access point resets its
clock to 07:04:59 upon reading a time of 07:04:59 from its designated NTP server.
Use the General screen of System Profile configuration screen to define whether the access point
can act as a RF Domain manager for its RF Domain.
To define a profile’s general configuration:
1. Select the Configuration tab from the Web UI.
2. Select Devices.
3. Select System Profile from the options on left-hand side of the UI.
General configuration options display by default, with the profile activated for use with this access
point model.
