Hi All,
Without wanting to be too specific - We have a corporate network with NTP server that I want to sync our new NAS to.
We also have a Lab LAN of equipment that can't be connected to the corporate LAN, that we want to time sync.
Is it possible to sync LAN1 to for example 'corp.ntp' AND on LAN2 host an NTP server?
Thanks in advance for all helpful comments

Yes, there are few things that need to be done on the NAS.
Lan 1: Connected to corp network with access to corp ntp server.
Lan 2: Connected to lab network, must be different subnet and mask than corp net with no default route.
Then follow what is outlined in this thread, keeping in mind some tweaks may be required for your particular use.

Ok, so I was about to start implementing the above linked thread.
However now I look more closely, am I behind the curve?
I'm running a TS-432XU on f/w 4.5.2.1566 and in Control Panel > Applications > NTP server, it offers me the option to 'Enable NTP Server' in various modes.
Seeing as the QNAP is already syncing with the corporate NTP server, does the above linked thread give any advantage over the 'NTP Server UI' or is it effectively obsolete?
