Netgear FR114P Time Checks

posted by Guest on Feb 19, 2006


I have a Netgear FR114P firewall/router. When looking at the logs I see
the following entries every 2 hours:

Fri, 2003-08-08 01:10:33 - Send out NTP Request to 192.43.244.18
Fri, 2003-08-08 01:10:33 - Receive NTP Reply from 192.43.244.18

NTP is a time check. 192.43.244.18 resolves to time.nist.gov which is the
government's time server.

The question is: what is generating these time requests? I don't think
any of the programs on my PC is doing it. Does the FR114P automatically
do a time check every 2 hours? If so, is there a way to stop it?

Most likely the router if you have the option turned on. Look at Schedule
section of the configuration.

Another possibility is Windows XP clients, assuming your clients are XP.
The default installation has XP checking its time against time.nist.gov.
Check the clock setting for this.
