Avaya IP Office

There are a couple easy ways to do this.

Log on to the System Administrator console and select the system on the left hand list. Make sure you have the System tab also selected and you will see a box called Time Settings. Just above this is a drop down list box called Time Setting Config Source. This tells the system where you want it to get the time from

If you want to quickly get the system and all handsets displaying the right time, the quickest way is to set the drop down box to Voicemail Pro / Manager.

In the Time Server Address box enter the IP address of the PC you are running System Administrator on and OK the change. Go to File -> Save configuration. This change is one that can be merged and within minutes you should start to see all handsets reflect the new time.

What’s the downside to this configuration?

The problem with this method is that it assumes that the time on your PC is correct. And even if you have your PC configured to pick up it’s time from an accurate time source, you are not going to be running the System Administrator console all the time for the system to sync to.

The best method is to point the Time Setting Config Source to an SNTP Server. SNTP Stands for Simple Network Time Protocol and it is a method of synchronizing the clocks of computer systems over packet switched data networks. If you have an SNTP Server on your local network that has an accurate time source point it at that. Alternatively you would need to configure your firewall to allow the Avaya IP Office system to get access to an external SNTP server.

To point at an SNTP server, change the Time Setting Config Source drop-down to the SNTP option. Put in the Time Server Address and check the other settings.
