Section 4. Configuring System Time
The System Time Page provides information for configuring system time parameters, including:
• Setting the System Clock
• Configuring SNTP
• Configuring Daylight Saving Time
Setting the System Clock
The System Time Page contains fields for defining system time parameters for both the local hardware clock and
the external SNTP clock. If the system time is kept using an external SNTP clock, and the external SNTP clock
fails, the system time reverts to the local hardware clock. Daylight Savings Time can be enabled on the device.
To configure the system clock time:
1. Click System > System Time. The System Time Page opens:
Figure 17: System Time Page
The Clock Source and System Time sections of the System Time Page contain the following fields:
• Clock Source — The source used to set the system clock. The possible field values are:
– Local Settings — Indicates that the clock is set locally. If the system clock is set locally, if the device is
powered down the time settings must be reset.
– SNTP — Indicates that the system time is set via an SNTP server.
• System Time — Sets the local clock time. The field format is HH:MM:SS. For example: 21:15:03.
