Setting NTP
Servers

If you enabled NTP synchronization, set your NTP servers in the Setup: Date & Time
- NTP Servers page. Enabling NTP time synchronization enables your logs to be
synchronized. While this option is not generally required for proper appliance
operation, it may be required if you use PFS. For detailed information, see

“Setting

Proxy File Service” on page 79

To set an NTP server

1. Click the Setup tab to display the Setup: Optimization Service - General Settings

page.

2. Click Date & Time in the left menu to display the Setup: Date & Time - Set Clock

page.
