'''NTP server'''
:<span style="font-size: small;">This will pick up the time and date from an NTP server.&nbsp; In this case please make sure you have Internet access and proper network setup, especially the gateway and DNS.&nbsp; You can check proper Internet access by using ping from the console tools. At the console, press&nbsp;'''Ctl-Alt-T&nbsp;'''.&nbsp; Select '&nbsp;'''Ping&nbsp;''''.</span>
:<span style="font-size: small;">To use this option you must set the correct NTP server in the&nbsp;'''Time zone settings&nbsp;'''function.</span>
<span style="font-size:small;">You may provide a fully qualified host name or an IP address. Select time zone suitable for your location.</span>
<span style="font-size:small;">With the&nbsp;'''Continuous adjusting using NTP'''&nbsp;option enabled your system time will be monitored and corrected if the difference between the local time and the server time changes. Enabling this option is especially recommended when using domains.</span>
