NTP Updates

Hello, good morning

 

 

One doubt about ntp. I have in my LTM, in system, configuration, device, NTP,, two ntp servers. 10.10.10.1 and 10.10.10.2

 

 

the question is,, how often the big ip communicate with the servers to get new date and time information? is this often is configurable ?

 

 

thanks a lot
