Guidelines

After an NTP server is identified by the remote-server command, the appliance functions as a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client as described in RFC 2030. As an NTP client, the appliance issues time-of-day requests to the specified NTP server every 15 minutes.

The appliance supports one NTP server at a time. To designate a new NTP server, use the no ntp-service command to delete the current server, and then use the remote-server command to designate the new server.
