Setting Date and Time
You can adjust the date and time settings of your appliance by navigating to Administration > Date and Time. You may need to do so if this information was entered incorrectly during initialization.
You can synchronize time with NTP Server using the Time Server (NTP) option (explained in the following paragraph), change time zone using the Set Time Zone option, change date using the Set Date option, or change time using the Set Time option. The information selected during installation is available beside each option.
Use an Up Arrow or Down Arrow key to change the values in the editable fields, such as Month/Year. Use any arrow key to navigate the calendar. Use the Tab key to navigate between the editable fields.
You can set the time and date using the Web UI as well.
For more information about setting the appliance time and date, refer to section Configuring Date and Time.
License, certificates, and date and time modifications
Date and time modifications may affect licenses and certificates. It is recommended to have time synchronized between Appliances and Protectors.
Configure NTP Time Server
You must enable or disable the NTP settings only from the CLI Manager or Web UI.
You can access the Configure Server NTP Time Server screen by navigating to Administration > Date and Time > Time Server option.
To enable NTP synchronization, you need to specify the NTP Server first and then enable NTP. Once the NTP Server is specified, the new time will be applied immediately.
The NTP synchronization may take some time and while it is in progress, the Synchronization Status displays In Progress. When it is over, the Synchronization Status displays Time Synchronized.
