Configuring time synchronization via the NTP protocol in Astra Linux

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. You can use the standard Network Time Protocol (NTP) for synchronization.

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:

To configure time synchronization via NTP:

  1. Click the clock image in the lower-right corner of the screen to open the Date and time system settings window.
  2. Select the Synchronization tab.
  3. Specify the NTP server that will be used for time synchronization.
  4. Click the Apply button.
  5. At the password prompt, enter the password of a user account that can execute commands with root privileges.
