Chapter 29 Time Settings The following table describes the fields in this screen. Table 107 Maintenance > Time Setting LABEL DESCRIPTION Current Date/Time System Time This field displays the time and fate of your ZyXEL Device. Each time you reload this page, the ZyXEL Device synchronizes the time and date with the time server. NTP Time Server First ~ Fifth NTP time server Select an NTP time server from the drop-down list box. Otherwise, select Other and enter the IP address or URL (up to 29 extended ASCII characters in length) of your time server. Select None if you don't want to configure the time server. Check with your ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this information. Time zone offset Choose the time zone of your location. This will set the time difference between your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Daylight Saving Daylight Saving Time is a period from late spring to early fall when many countries set their clocks ahead of normal local time by one hour to give more daytime light in the evening. State Select Enable if you use Daylight Saving Time. Start rule: Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you enabled Daylight Saving. You can select a specific date in a particular month or a specific day of a specific week in a particular month. The Time 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, set the day to Second, Sunday, the month to March and the time to 2 in the Hour field. 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 set the day to Last, Sunday and the month to March. The time you select in the o'clock field depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would select 2 in the Hour field because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1). 292 VSG1432-B101 Series User's Guide

The following table describes the fields in this screen.
Table 107
Maintenance > Time Setting
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Current Date/Time
System Time
This field displays the time and fate of your ZyXEL Device.
Each time you reload this page, the ZyXEL Device synchronizes the
time and date with the time server.
NTP Time Server
First ~ Fifth NTP
time server
Select an NTP time server from the drop-down list box.
Otherwise, select
Other
and enter the IP address or URL (up to 29
extended ASCII characters in length) of your time server.
Select
None
if you don’t want to configure the time server.
Check with your ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this
information.
Time zone offset
Choose the time zone of your location. This will set the time difference
between your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Daylight Saving
Daylight Saving Time is a period from late spring to early fall when
many countries set their clocks ahead of normal local time by one hour
to give more daytime light in the evening.
State
Select
Enable
if you use Daylight Saving Time.
Start rule:
Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you
enabled Daylight Saving. You can select a specific date in a particular
month or a specific day of a specific week in a particular month. The
Time
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, set the day to
Second
,
Sunday
, the month to
March
and the
time to
2
in the
Hour
field.
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 set the day to
Last
,
Sunday
and the
month to
March
. The time you select in the
o'clock
field depends on
your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would select
2
in the
Hour
field because Germany's time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or
UTC (GMT+1).
