Managing the Time/Date The 900 Series phone obtains the current time information in one of the following ways: • NTP Server-One or two NTP servers can be configured to the phone. When it first boots up, the phone tries to contact the NTP server to get the current time. Then the phone periodically synchronizes the current time with the NTP server. The synchronization period is fixed at 1 hour. In between the update, the phone tracks the time with its own internal clock. • SIP Messages-Each SIP message (request or response) sent to the SPA may contain a Date header with the current time information. If the header is present, the SPA uses it to update its current time. • Manual Setup-900 Series phone also lets the user manually enter the current time and date from the phone GUI or from the web page. However, this value is overridden by the NTP time or SIP Message Date whenever they are presented to the phone. Manual setup requires the user to enter the time in 24 hour format only.
