Time Settings
A system clock provides a network-synchronized time-stamping service for
software events such as message logs. You can configure the system clock
manually or configure the WAP device as a Network Time Protocol (NTP) client
that obtains the clock data from a server.
Use the Time Settings page to set the system time manually or to configure the
system to acquire its time settings from a preconfigured NTP server. By default,

The current system time appears at the top of the page, along with the System
Clock Source option.
