25.2.1 Resetting the Time

The ZyXEL Device resets the time in three instances:

1 On leaving menu 24.10 after making changes.
2 When the ZyXEL Device starts up, if there is a timeserver configured in menu 24.10.
3 24-hour intervals after starting.

25.3 Remote Management Setup

25.3.1 Telnet

You can configure your ZyXEL Device for remote Telnet access as shown next.

Time Zone

Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to set the time difference between your

time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Daylight Saving

If you use daylight savings time, then choose Yes.

Start Date

Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you selected

Yes in the Daylight Saving field. The hr field uses the 24 hour format. Here

are a couple of examples:
Daylight Saving Time starts in most parts of the United States on the second

Sunday of March. Each time zone in the United States starts using Daylight

Saving Time at 2 A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select

Second, Sunday, March and 2:00.
Daylight Saving Time starts in the European Union on the last Sunday of

March. All of the time zones in the European Union start using Daylight Saving

Time at the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union

you would select Mar., Last, Sun. The time you type in the hr field depends

on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 02 because

Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1).

End Date

Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time ends if you selected

Yes in the Daylight Saving field. The hr field uses the 24 hour format. Here

are a couple of examples:
Daylight Saving Time ends in the United States on the first Sunday of

November. Each time zone in the United States stops using Daylight Saving

Time at 2 A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select First,

Sunday, November and 2:00.
Daylight Saving Time ends in the European Union on the last Sunday of

October. All of the time zones in the European Union stop using Daylight

Saving Time at the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European

Union you would select Oct., Last, Sun. The time you type in the hr field

depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 02

because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1).

Once you have filled in this menu, press [ENTER] at the message “Press ENTER to Confirm or ESC to

Cancel” to save your configuration, or press [ESC] to cancel.
