When SNTP is enabled, an SNTP Status field appears. This field indicates whether SNTP is
synchronized or unsynchronized. Click Refresh to update this status.
Time Server (optional) If your network has a default time server, enter the server's IP address or host name.

• Use Daylight Savings Time (United States Only)
Select yes to have the access point automatically adjust to Daylight Savings Time.
• Manually Set Date
Enter the current date to override the time server or to set the date if no server is
available. When entering the date, use forward-slashes to separate the year, month,
