NETGEAR 7000 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide Version 6.0 Example #5: Setting Time Zone The SNTP/NTP server is set to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) by default. The following example shows how to set the time zone to Pacific Standard Time (PST) which is 8 hours behind GMT/UTC. (Netgear switch)(config)#clock timezone PST -8 Example #6: Setting Named SNTP Server Netgear provides SNTP servers accessable by Netgear devices. Because Netgear may change IP addresses assigned to its time servers, it is best to access a SNTP server by DNS name instead of using a hard-coded IP address. The public time servers available are time-a, time-b, and time-c. To use this feature, follow the steps below: Enable a DNS name server and access a time server with the following commands: (Netgear switch) (config)#ip domain-lookup (Netgear switch) (config)#ip name-server 192.168.1.1 (Netgear switch) (config)#sntp server time-a.netgear.com where "192.168.1.1" is the public network gateway IP address for your device. This method of setting DNS name look-up can be used for any other applications that require a public IP address, for example, a RADIUS server. 18-4 Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) v1.0, Jan 2007
