Setting the Date and
Time Using the Network
Time Protocol
The library supports the Network Time Protocol (NTP). NTP allows you to
synchronize the library date and time with other components in your IT
infrastructure. Administrators can either modify the date and time zone
settings manually or configure NTP.
If NTP is enabled, the time zone and IP addresses (or host names, if DNS
is
configured) of at least one NTP server must be configured on the
library. Contact your network administrator for NTP server IP address
information.
Caution: Using two NTP servers can cause incorrect time
calculations. You should use either one NTP server, or more
than two, but not exactly two.
