This section describes the actions available for configuring time synchronization via NTP and PTP.
The time on nodes that have Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks components installed must be synchronized with a common source of time used by industrial network devices. For synchronization purposes, you can use the standard protocols known as Network Time Protocol (NTP) and Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
On the Server node, you must configure time synchronization regardless of how this component was installed (after centralized installation as well as after local installation).
On nodes hosting installed sensors, you must configure time synchronization in the following cases:
The steps required for configuring time synchronization may differ depending on the version of the operating system and the specific protocol.
