Time Settings (NTP)
This window allows you to manage the AP’s time settings, including
synchronizing the AP’s clock with a universal clock from an Network Time
Protocol (NTP) server. We recommend that you use NTP for proper operation of
SNMP in XMS, since a lack of synchronization will cause errors to be detected.
Synchronizing the AP’s clock with an NTP server also ensures that Syslog time-
stamping is maintained across all units.
It is possible to use authentication with NTP to ensure that you are receiving
synchronization from a known source. For example, the instructions for
requesting a key for the NIST Authenticated NTP server are available at 
http://www.nist.gov/pml/div688/grp00/upload/ntp_instructions.pdf.
The AP allows you to enter optional authentication information.
