Note: Before you can choose an option in the Key field,
you must first set up symmetric keys through the
Actions panel. See "Configuring NTP Symmetric Keys"
on page131. Conversely, you may check the Autokey box
below the Key field.
Enable Autokey: Click here if you want to use Autokey with this
server. See "NTP Autokey" on page125.
Note: When you configure NTP Autokey, you must first
disable the NTP service in the NTP Services panel, and
then re-enable it after the Autokey configuration is com-
pleted.
Enable Burst: This tells NTP to send a burst to the remote server
when the server is reachable.
Enable Iburst: The iburst function tells NTP to send a burst of queries
instead of one when the remote server is not reachable for faster
clock synchronization. This will occur if the connection was inter-
rupted, or upon restart of the NTP daemon. For additional inform-
ation, please refer to public NTP configuration documentation.
Mark as Preferred: Click here to make this server the preferred server.
For more information, see "Configuring "NTP Stratum 1" Operation"
on page116.
Note: It is not normally recommended to select more
than one NTP Server in the NTP Servers table as being
Preferred. Typically, only one NTP server should be selec-
ted as Preferred.
