NTP
FortiPolicy infrastructure workloads, segments, microsegments, management console, and so on are all required to be synchronized and therefore need access to an NTP server. FortiPolicy networked components must also be synchronized with customer workloads and with computers in and outside the firewall. For most uses, one or two backup NTP servers are enough. If a networked computer cannot access one NTP server for any reason, it will try to connect to the next one in the configuration set.
Go to the NTP section of the Configuration > Setup > Servers page to configure the NTP servers.
-
Enter the IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the primary NTP server.
-
Enter up to three backup IP addresses or FQDNs.
-
If you want to add another NTP server, click Add Another NTP Server.
-
Click SAVE to save the configuration.
