Configuring SNTP
You can work with Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) settings from System i® Navigator or by using the Change SNTP Attributes (CHGNTPA) command on the character-based interface.

The options that you see in System i Navigator depend on the version of the IBM® i operating system that runs on your system and the version of IBM i Access for Windows that is used. From System i Navigator, click Help or press F1 for help that describes the procedures for your version.
