How to change NTP server and DNS on FTD ?

[sam cook]

Hi,

I have an issue with changing NTP and DNS values on my HA of FTD2110.

The 2 FTDs are connected to my FMC.

I could not find how to change the NTP servers or the DNS servers 

> show ntp
NTP Server : 127.127.1.1
Status : Unknown
Offset : 0.000 (milliseconds)
Last Update : 44h (seconds)

NTP Server : 127.0.0.2
Status : Being Used
Offset : 0.238 (milliseconds)
Last Update : 32 (seconds)

> show dns
INFO: no activated FQDN
>

HELP please

In FMC, go to Devices, Platform Settings. Create a Platform policy and target your FTD device(s). In that policy, edit the Time Synchronization setting. Save and deploy.

Marvin, you're a lifesaver. I've tried Google and YouTube for 2 days before deciding to pester people like you on this forum.

The most important take from this is, I have learned something very important which will help me along my way with learning FMC/FTD.

You're the Man... Thanks

Hi, where exactly are the setting for dns within the Platform settings for FMC ? I am dont see see any such settings there.

[Marvin Rhoads]

Platform settings are for managed sensors. For those, there's a DNS tab:

For FMC's DNS resolver please look under System > Configuration > Management Interfaces > Shared Settings:

Which version do you have? The FMC that I have doesnt have DNS options:

The screenshot I posted earlier was taken from a FMC 6.3 system. (since then it's been upgraded to 6.4).

I couldn't find mention in the release notes but I checked a 6.2.3.14 system and it's not there.
