Fix Recommendation

Configure the DataPower Gateway to synchronize internal information system clocks to the authoritative time source (NTP servers).

In the DataPower WebGUI, go to Network >> Interface >> NTP Service. Specify the IP addresses of several approved NTP servers. The refresh interval may be defined at any value between 60 and 86400 seconds.

Check Contents

Using the DataPower web interface, go to Network >> Interface >> NTP Service. Confirm that the Administrative state is enabled, NTP Servers are configured, and that the Refresh Interval is set to 2040 seconds or less. If it is not, this is a finding.
