The NTP Configuration page has the following parameters.

  • Mode: Indicates the NTP mode operation. The following are the possible modes:
    • Enabled: Enable NTP client mode operation
    • Disabled: Disable NTP client mode operation
  • Server: Provide the IPv4 or IPv6 address of a NTP server. IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight fields of up to four hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example, 'fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7'. The symbol '::' is a special syntax that can be used as a shorthand way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can appear only once. It can also represent a legally valid IPv4 address. For example, '::192.1.2.34'. In addition, it can also accept a domain name address.
