What is an advantage of having the correct date and time on a network device?
- Network administrators are provided with correct timestamps on log messages.
- When working at the console prompt, the network administrator has a good idea how long the configuration or troubleshooting process is taking.
- Other devices can use CDP to discover neighbor device information if the time and date are synchronized between the two devices.
- Secure remote connectivity can be accomplished if the date and time are accurate.
Explanation: By using NTP or manually configuring the date and time on a network device, log messages are time stamped accurately. This is especially important when troubleshooting problems.
