NTP server to synch APC Smart-UPS 1500 XLM date and time

[Anonymous user]

Anyone can give suggestion to setup NTP server to synch APC unit date and time? Do we need to use third party NTP server to synch up APC date and time?

I tried to synch the UPS to domain controller but that doesn't work.

Thanks

Hi Indo,

Do you already have an NTP server setup on your network? If you don't have one yet you can use the free NTP servers that can be found on the net. The network management card will get the Greenwich Mean Time from the NTP server and then adjust it according to the Time Zone that you have selected. With regards to the interval it would depend on how frequent do you want the card to query/check for the latest NTP time.
