Switchvox - How to set the correct time on Digium phones located on different areas

Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization.  This sets the time on your Digium phones. 

 

If you have a  Digium phone that needs to have a different time than the phones located at your main office (where the Switchvox is located), you can either set a different NTP server for your phone in the phone networks tab or alter the localization settings on the phone.

  

To alter the NTP server through the phone networks tab:

  1. Navigate to Server > Networking > Phone networks

  2. Locate the network you want to affect and Modify

  3. Next to NTP Server enter a corrected NTP server for your timezone

 

Alternately from a D-Series phone press Menu > Preferences > Localization Settings > Change Time Zone

 

Note: that this only works for Digium phones
