Which two time settings are available for the IP Office Server Edition? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• ATime derived from the Manager PC
• BAn internal clock, manually set
• CAutomatic setting by the Clocking on T1 or SIP Trunks
• DTime given by a time server on the network
• EA wizard in the Manager program

• A
  93% (39)
• C
  2% (1)
• E
  5% (2)

Explanation

IP Office Server Edition supports two external time sources: syncing from the Manager PC (A) when an administrator connects, which pushes the PC's current time to the system, and syncing via NTP from a network time server (D), which provides ongoing automatic time accuracy.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B is incorrect because IP Office Server Edition does not use a standalone manually-set internal clock as a configurable time option - it relies on external sources.
• C is a common trap: T1/SIP clocking refers to physical layer signal timing (keeping bits in sync), not time-of-day synchronization - these are completely different concepts.
• E is incorrect because no dedicated time-setting wizard exists in Manager; while Manager facilitates time sync, it does so as a feature, not a separate wizard.

Memory tip: Think of the two correct answers as "Admin pushes, Domain pulls" - the Manager PC pushes its time to the system during connection, while an NTP server on the network pulls the system into sync automatically. If you remember that T1 clocking ≠ time, you'll avoid the most common wrong answer on this question.
