How do I configure NTP for the Scanner Appliance?

To configure Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers for the Scanner Appliance follow these instructions:

  1. Open the Scanner appliance interface from your virtualization environment.
  2. Go to Configuration > NTP  using your arrow keys and press enter in the configurator.
  3. Enter the NTP configuration settings.
  4. Press the tab key on your keyboard and select OK.
    • Make sure to use the tab key on the keyboard as you otherwise could risk resetting the settings
  5. The Scanner Appliance will not reboot and your settings will be applied.
  6. Done!


Note:

NTP is typically set and used when using static IP addresses for the network configuration. When using DHCP, the NTP configuration is often provided by the DHCP. 
If you are using DHCP and setting the NTP configuration, it might not get applied for this reason.
