While checking the configuration of a Juniper Networks netscreen-5gt firewall, I noticed that the time was incorrect and that it was not set up to query a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to ensure its time was accurate. To check or set the NTP configuration on a Juniper Networks NetScreen firewall, From the web management interface, you can check and set the Network Time Protocol (NTP) information for a Juniper NetScreen firewall, such as the NetScreen-5GT firewall, by clicking on Date/Time beneath the Configuration option on the menu.
The NTP configuration can also be viewed and set from a command line
interface accessible by SSH using get ntp
and set ntp
commands. Up to three NTP servers can be configured. The time interval for
NTP queries can be specified.
