Add an SNTP server
By default, certain SNTP servers are predefined on the switch.
To add an SNTP server:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
For information about finding the IP address of the switch, see Access the switch on
page 14.
The Local Device Login page displays.
If you did not yet register the switch with your NETGEAR account, the Register to unlock
all features page displays. For more information, see
Register and access the switch with
your NETGEAR account on page 29.
4. Enter one of the following passwords:
• After registration, enter your customized local device password.
• If you previously added the switch to an Insight network location, enter the Insight
network password.
For more information about the local device password and the Insight network password,
see
Credentials for the local browser UI on page 28.
5. Click the Login button.
The System Information page displays.
6. Select System > Management > Time > SNTP Server Configuration.
The SNTP Server Configuration page displays.
7. From the Server Type menu, select the type of SNTP address to enter in the address field.
The address can be either an IP address (IPv4, IPv6) or a host name (DNS). The default
value is IPv4.
8. In the Address field, specify the IP address or the host name of the SNTP server.
This is a text string of up to 64 characters, containing the encoded unicast IP address or
host name of an SNTP server. Unicast SNTP requests are sent to this address. If this
address is a DNS host name, then that host name is resolved into an IP address each
time an SNTP request is sent to it.
9. If the UDP port on the SNTP server to which SNTP requests are sent is not the standard
port (123), specify the port number in the Port field.
The valid range is 1 to 65535. The default value is 123.
10. In Priority field, specify the priority order which to query the servers.
