43.3 Date and Time
For effective scheduling and logging, the ZyWALL system time must be accurate. The
ZyWALL’s Real Time Chip (RTC) keeps track of the time and date. There is also a software
mechanism to set the time manually or get the current time and date from an external server.
To change your ZyWALL’s time based on your local time zone and date, click System >
Date/Time. The screen displays as shown. You can manually set the ZyWALL’s time and
date or have the ZyWALL get the date and time from a time server.
