2. From the Date/Time pull-down menu, select the local time zone. This is required in order for
scheduling to work correctly. The VPN firewall includes a Real-Time Clock (RTC), which it
uses for scheduling.
3. If supported in your region, check the Automatically Adjust for Daylight Savings Time
radio box.
4. Select a NTP Server option by checking one of the following radio boxes:
• Use Default NTP Servers. The RTC is updated regularly by contacting a NETGEAR
NTP server on the Internet. A primary and secondary (backup) server are preloaded.
• Use Custom NTP Servers. To use a particular NTP server, enter the name or IP address
of the NTP Server in the Server 1 Name/IP Address field. You can enter the address of a
backup NTP server in the Server 2 Name/IP Address field. If you select this option and
leave either the Server 1 or Server 2 fields empty, they will be set to the default Netgear
NTP servers.
5. Click Apply to save your settings or click Cancel to revert to your previous settings.
Figure 6-9
Note: If you select the default NTP servers or if you enter a custom server FQDN, the
VPN firewall must determine the IP address of the NTP server by a DNS
lookup. You must configure a DNS server address on the Broadband ISP
Settings screen before the VPN firewall can perform this lookup.
