When the Security Log contains no entries, this is the response:
Timestamp Background
During bootup, to provide better log information and to support improved troubleshooting,
a Netopia Gateway acquires the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Uni-
versal Coordinated Time (UTC) reference signal, and then adjusts it for your local time
zone.
Once per hour, the Gateway attempts to re-acquire the NIST reference, for re-synchroniza-
tion or initial acquisition of the UTC information. Once acquired, all subsequent log entries
display this date and time information. UTC provides the equivalent of Greenwich Mean
Time (GMT) information.
If the WAN connection is not enabled (or NTP has been disabled), the internal clocking
function of the Gateway provides log timestamps based on “uptime” of the unit.
