NTP is a protocol designed to synchronize the clocks of computers over a network.To configure NTP on SecurePlatform, proceed as follows:Login to the SecurePlatform CLI (Command Line Interface).Access 'Expert Mode'.Run sysconfig.Perform "Time and Date Configuration". Be sure to set your time zone correctly.Quit the sysconfig utility.Type ntp -n Notes:-n switch specifies that you are not using an MD5 secret. If you need to use an MD5 secret, replace -n with the secret. See the syntax section below.is the time between NTP updates measured in seconds. (For example, a polling interval of 5 minutes would be specified as 300 seconds.)The NTP daemon included on SecurePlatform is a client side only process and cannot be used as a time server, only as a relay server.For more information regarding configuration of ntpd (the NTP daemon), refer to the documentation provided at ntp.orgSyntax for NTP:ntp < server2IP> ntp -n < server2IP> (when working without MD5 secret)
