Fix Recommendation

Configure the Gateway using "ssgconfig" to set multiple ntp sources using menu: 1) Configure system settings >> 1) Configure networking and system time settings.

Walk through the query process until being queried for time servers and insert a comma-separated list of ntp time servers.

Check Contents

Verify the Gateway (using "ssgconfig") is configured to use multiple ntp sources using menu: 1) Configure system settings >> 1) Configure networking and system time settings.

Walk through the query process until being queried for time servers and verify the list of ntp servers is correct.

If the CA API Gateway is not configured to use multiple ntp sources, this is a finding.
