menu. The IAD displays the current timeout period and prompts for a new
value.

enter the IP address or the host name if DNS Client is configured. When you
configure a Primary NTP Server, the IAD displays the Primary and Secondary
NTP servers instead of the default ‘Country NTP Server.’

You may configure a Secondary NTP Server as a backup in case the Primary
NTP Server cannot be contacted. Type “S” on the NTP Server menu and
enter the IP address or the host name if DNS Client is configured.

To remove the configuration of Primary and Secondary NTP Servers, type

time. When the IAD is reset or the power is cycled, the IAD will use Network
Timing Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time.
