Chapter 3. Getting Started with Web Configuration Note Modifying Basic System Information You can modify the system date and time or configure the device to acquire this information from an ISP server. You can also assign a name to the Ethernet Modem Router and to the network domain in which it resides. Modifying the Date and Time or Configuring SNTP You can set the system date and time manually or enable the SNTP feature so that the device acquires this information from an ISP server. f When you set the date and time manually, the information will be held only as long as the device stays on; if power is turned off or you reboot, the date and time revert to default values and must again be updated. f When you enable SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol), the device connects to an ISP server that provides the date and time information. You cannot use Web Configuration to specify the IP address of this server; it must have been included as a preconfigured software setting. Verify with the ISP that they have provided an SNTP server address in the configuration before enabling this service. Setting the Ethernet Modem Router date and time, whether manually or through SNTP, does not affect the date and time on your PCs.

Modifying Basic System Information
You can modify the system date and time or configure the device to
acquire this information from an ISP server. You can also assign a
name to the Ethernet Modem Router and to the network domain in
which it resides.
Modifying the Date and Time or Configuring SNTP
You can set the system date and time manually or enable the SNTP
feature so that the device acquires this information from an ISP
server.
When you set the date and time manually, the information
will be held only as long as the device stays on; if power is
turned off or you reboot, the date and time revert to default
values and must again be updated.
When you enable SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol),
the device connects to an ISP server that provides the date
and time information. You cannot use Web Configuration to
specify the IP address of this server; it must have been
included as a preconfigured software setting. Verify with the
ISP that they have provided an SNTP server address in the
configuration before enabling this service.
Note
Setting the Ethernet Modem Router date and time, whether
manually or through SNTP, does not affect the date and time on
your PCs.
Follow these instructions to change the system date and time or
enable SNTP:
