Date and Time
The ACS 6000 console server provides two options for setting date and time. You can set the
console server to retrieve data and time from a network time protocol (NTP) server, or in situations
where that is impractical or prohibited, you can set the time manually so that the console server’s
internal clock is used to provide time and date information.
NOTE: The Current Time displayed in the Date & Time screen shows only the time when the screen was
opened. It does not continue to update in real time.
To set the time and date using NTP:
1. Click Applications Settings - Date And Time. The Date & Time screen is displayed.
2. Select Enable network time protocol to activate the NTP server field.
3. Enter the NTP server site of your choice.
4. Click Save.
