X Configuration SNTP Server
In “Server status” you switch the SNTP server of the device on/
off.
In “Anycast destination address” you enter the IP address to
which the SNTP server of the device sends its SNTP packets
(see table 5).
In “VLAN ID” you specify the VLAN to which the device
periodically sends its SNTP packets.
In “Anycast send interval” you specify the interval at which the
device sends SNTP packets (valid entries: 1 s to 3,600 s, on
delivery: 120 s).
With “Disable Server at local time source” the device disables the
SNTP server function if the source of the time is local (see
Time dialog).
