Configure an NTP Server

Extreme Networks devices typically obtain the time and date for their internal clocks from an NTP server. Create NTP server profiles in the Common Objects area first, before creating Network Policies and the VGVAs that reference them.

  1. Go to Configure > Common Objects > Management > NTP Servers.
  2. Select an existing NTP Server and then select Edit, or select Add.
  3. Configure the NTP Server Settings.
  4. To add an NTP server, select Add.
    1. To use an existing NTP server, select it from the Select menu.
    2. To add a new NTP server, select Add, and then select IP Address or Host Name.
    3. Type a Name for the new IP object.
    4. Optional: If you want to change your previous selection, select IP Address or Host Name from the menu.
    5. Select SAVE IP OBJECT.
    6. Select ADD.

    ExtremeCloud IQ accesses NTP servers in order, from the top down. Use the up and down arrows to rearrange them if necessary.

  5. Select SAVE.
