122 Managing the PowerVault NX3500Packets that are sent to clients in subnet Y would be routed to router X, whichwould then be sent back (through the switch) to router Y. This means thesepackets travel through router X needlessly, reducing the throughput to allsubnets in your network.The solution is to define, in addition to a default gateway, a specific gatewayfor certain subnets–configuring static routes. To do this you would have todescribe each subnet in your network and identify the most suitable gatewayto access that subnet.You do not have to do so for the entire network - a default gateway is mostsuitable when performance is not an issue. You can select when and where touse static routes to best meet your performance needs.Removing an NTP ServerIf an NTP server is no longer in the LAN/client network, remove the NTPserver.To remove an NTP server:1 Select the NTP server you want to remove.2 Click Delete NTP server(s).3 Click Save Changes.Synchronizing PowerVault NX3500 With a LocalNTP ServerIf the system is not part of a Windows network, configure it to synchronizewith a local NTP server (if such a server exists), or with an NTP server on theInternet.To configure the PowerVault NX3500 system to be synchronized with a localNTP server or an NTP server on the Internet:1 Click System ManagementGeneralTime Configuration.2 Select Time should be synchronized with an NTP server.3 Select NTP Server.4 Type the name of the local NTP server or Internet NTP server in the NTPserver field.
