__TOC__

==Summary==

<b>Network Time Protocol</b> (<b>NTP</b>) 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 section for {{{name}}} devices.

==General==

The <b>Time Synchronization</b> section lets you select time zone{{#ifeq:{{{gps}}}|1|, enable GPS synchronization|}} and synchronize the time.

The figure below is an example of the Time Synchronization section and the table below
provides information about the fields contained in that section:

<table class="nd-mantable">
<tr>
<th>Field</th>
<th>Value</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Current system time</td>
<td>time; default: <b>none</b></td>
<td>Current local time of the device.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Sync with browser</td>
<td>-(interactive button)</td>
<td>Click to synchronize device time to browser time, if your device time is not correct.
<b>Note</b> - to synchronize to correct time zone you first have to click <b>Save & apply</b>, as <b>Sync with browser</b> button checks currently saved time zone.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Time zone</td>
<td>time zone; default: <b>UTC</b></td>
<td>The device will sync time in accordance with the selected time zone.</td>
</tr>
{{#ifeq:{{{gps}}}|1|
<tr>
<td>GPS Synchronization</td>
<td>off {{!}} on; default: <b>off</b></td>
<td>Enables periodic time synchronization for the system using the GPS module which does not require an Internet connection.</td>
</tr>

==NTP==

This section is used to configure NTP client, server and time servers.

===NTP Client===
----

<table class="nd-mantable">
<tr>
<th>Field</th>
<th>Value</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Enable NTP Client</td>
<td>off | on; default: <b>on</b></td>
<td>Turns NTP on or off.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Force Servers</td>
<td>off | on; default: <b>off</b></td>
<td>Forces unreliable NTP servers.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Update interval (in seconds)</td>
<td>integer; default: <b>600</b></td>
<td>Defines how often the device will update the time.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Offset frequency</td>
<td>integer; default: <b>0</b></td>
<td>Adjusts the minor drift of the clock so that it will run more accurately.</td>
</tr>
</table>

===Time servers===
----

The <b>Time Servers</b> section displays the NTP servers that the device 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.

===NTP Server===
----

The device can also act as an <b>NTP Server</b>, providing clock synchronization to other devices in the network.
From this section you can turn this feature on or off:
