Volume 1-Configuration Fundamentals / Chapter 3-Command-Line Interface (CLI) User EXEC Mode Configuration Commands Time Date Component Description DD Used to indicate a two-digit day of that month, 01 through to 31. Table 3-9 For example, the Switch would represent the date "22nd of February 2012" as "2012-02-22." This Switch allows calendar dates to be written with reduced precision. For example, if the user inputs "2012-02" the Switch will identify the calendar date as "2012 February". If the user inputs "2012" the Switch will identify the year as "2012". The format of YYYY-MM-DD is necessary for complete calendar date representations. The Switch uses the 24-hour clock system, with the following format: [hh]:[mm]:[ss]. The following table explains the components that the Switch uses to represent the time: Date Component Description [hh] Used to refer to a zero-padded hour between 00 and 24, where 24 is only used to notate midnight at the end of a calendar day. [mm] Used to refer to a minute between 00 and 59 [ss] Used to refer to a second between 00 and 59. Table 3-10 Switch Time Components For example "14:50:30". Midnight is a special case and can be referred to as either "00:00" or "24:00". The notation "00:00" is used at the beginning of a calendar day and is used more frequently. The notation usually used at the end of a day is "24:00". Countdown Timer The Switch uses most its timers for protocol synchronization. The Switch timers usually use seconds or milliseconds time units. The Switch usually abbreviates seconds to sec and milliseconds to msec for unified display formatting. DGS-6600 Configuration Guide 51
