5.6.2 System
Information
Configuring system information is optional, but recommended.
System Name:
Using a unique name helps you to identify individual devices in stacking
environments and when using SNMPc, HP Open View or any other NMS software for Hubs &
Switches. (For more details see chapter
SNMP).
5.6.3
System Contact and Location:
This information is helpful for identifying the person administratively responsible for the switch and
for identifying the locations of individual switches.
LE2425A#
snmp
LE2425A(snmp)##
Syntax
:
setvar [sysname|syscontact|syslocation]=<string>
LE2425A(snmp)##
setvar syslocation=
Lawrence
System variable(s) set successfully
(For more details see chapter
SNMP).
5.7
Configure the Date and Time
The switch uses the date command to configure the date. Note that the CLI uses either a 12 or 24-
hour clock scheme; that is, hour
(hh
) values from 1 p.m. to midnight are input either as 1 or 13. You
can set the format with the help of the
set time
command.
Syntax: set date year
=<2000-2036>
month
=<1-12>
day
=<1-31>
For example, to set the switch to 3:45 p.m. on October 1, 2001 in California USA input “GMT –
08:00”:
LE2425A#
set timezone GMT
=[+ or -]
hour
=<0-14>
min
=<0-59>
LE2425A#
set date year
=<2001-2035>
month
=<1-12>
day
=<1-31
>
Note:
Executing
reboot
resets the time and date to their default startup values.
5.7.1 SNTP
Simple Network Time Protocol
The SNTP protocol is used to allow network access to accurate clocks and other sources of time base
information that is an adaptation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) used to synchronize device
clocks in the Internet.
The SNTP client of the LE2425A and LEV2525A has the ability to set the SNTP server IP address.
The SNTP client synchronizes the time and date with the SNTP server.
CLI Commands
LE2425A# sntp
LE2425A(sntp)##
Syntax
:
setsntp server
= <ipaddress>
timeout
= <1-10>
retry
= <1-3>
E.g., LE2425A(sntp)##
setsntp server = 204.65.129.201 timeout = 3 retry = 3
