NTP Configuration
A Network Time Protocol (NTP) server provides a precise time source (radio clock or atomic clock) to
synchronize the system clocks of network devices. NTP is transported over User Datagram Protocol
UDP/IP. All NTP communications use Universal Time Coordinated (UTC). An NTP server receives its
time from a reference time source, such as a radio clock or atomic clock, attached to the time. NTP
distributes this time across the network.

About NTP
In a large enterprise network, having one time standard for all network devices is critical for management
reporting and event logging functions when trying to correlate interacting events logged across multiple
devices. Many enterprise customers with extremely mission-critical networks maintain their own
stratum-1 NTP source.
