| | | <!------------DEVICE DETAILS--------------> |
| '''Network Time Protocol (NTP)''' is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. This chapter is an overview of the NTP service section of [[Network products|RUTxxx routers]].
| | | name = RUT850 |
| | | | fw_version = RUT850_R_00.01.03.2 |
| ==General==
| | | gps = 0 |
| | | <!---------------GENERAL------------------> |
| The '''Time Synchronization''' section is used to configure general router time settings, like selecting the local time zone, setting a time update interval, synchronizing the time, etc.

| ==NTP Server==
| |
| | |
| The router can also act as an '''NTP Server''', providing clock synchronization to other devices in the network. From this section you can turn this feature ON or OFF.

| | |
| ==Time Servers== | |
| | |
| The '''Time Servers''' section displays the time servers that the router uses. You are provided with 4 default time servers (as seen in the example below), but you can also add custom time servers by clicking the "Add" button or you can edit the given time servers.
