76 CHAPTER 5: ROUTER CONFIGURATION Time and Time Zone Figure 67 Time and Time Zone screen The Router keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Router to synchronize the system clock to the Internet. The synchronized clock in the Router is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. If you reside in an area that observes Daylight Saving, then place a checkmark in the box next to Enable Daylight Saving. The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the router to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself. You can specify which SNTP servers the Router will use to update it's system clock, although doing this should only be necessary if you are experiencing difficulty.
