DESCRIPTION

Time Server

Use Protocol

when Bootup

Select the time service protocol that your time server uses. Not all time servers

support all protocols, so you may have to check with your ISP/network

administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works.

The main difference between them is the format.

When you select the

Daytime (RFC 867)

format, the switch displays the day,

month, year and time with no time zone adjustment. When you use this format

it

is recommended that you use a Daytime timeserver within your geographical time

zone.

Time (RFC 868)

format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total number of

seconds since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.

NTP (RFC 1305)

is similar to

Time (RFC 868)

.

Select

None

to enter the time and date manually.

IP Address or URL

Enter the IP address or URL of your time server. Check with your ISP/network

administrator if you are unsure of this information.

Time and Date

Choose the time zone of your location. This will set the time difference between

your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Daylight Savings

Select this option if you use daylight savings time. Daylight saving 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.

Start Date

Enter the month and day that your daylight-savings time starts on if you selected

Daylight Savings

.

End Date

Enter the month and day that your daylight-savings time ends on if you selected

Daylight Savings

.

Synchronize

system clock with

Time Server now.

Select this option to have your ZyXEL Device use the time server (that you

configured above) to set its internal system clock.

Please wait for up to 60 seconds while the ZyXEL Device locates the time server.

If the ZyXEL Device cannot find the time server, please check the time server

protocol and its IP address. If the IP address was entered correctly, try pinging it

for example to test the connection.
