Command Usage

In some countries or regions, clocks are adjusted through the summer months so that
afternoons have more daylight and mornings have less. This is known as Summer Time, or
Daylight Savings Time (DST). Typically, clocks are adjusted forward one hour at the start of
spring and then adjusted backward in autumn.

This command sets the summer-time time zone relative to the currently configured time zone.
To display a time corresponding to your local time when summer time is in effect, you must
indicate the number of minutes your summer-time time zone deviates from your regular time
zone (that is, the offset).

Example

Console(config)#clock summer-time MESZ recurring 1 friday june 23 59 3 saturday

september 2 55 60

Console(config)#
