Chapter 1 Setting Up the ACE
Configuring the Time, Date, and Time Zone
For example, to set the time zone to PDT and to set an UTC offset of –8 hours,
enter:
host1/Admin(config)#
clock timezone PDT -8 0
To remove the clock timezone setting, use the
no
form of this command. For
example, enter:
host1/Admin(config)#
no clock timezone
Adjusting for Daylight Saving Time
To configure the ACE to change the time automatically to summer time (daylight
savings time), use the
clock summer-time
command in configuration mode.
The first part of the command specifies when summer time begins, and the second
part of the command specifies when summer time ends. All times are relative to
the local time zone; the start time is relative to the standard time and the end time
is relative to the summer time. If the starting month is after the ending month, the
ACE assumes that you are found in the Southern Hemisphere.
The syntax of this command is as follows:
clock summer-time
{
daylight_timezone_name
start_week
s
tart_day
start_month start_time end_week end_day end_month end_time
daylight_offset
|
standard
timezone
}
The keywords, arguments, and options are:
•
daylight_timezone_name—
Eight-character name of the time zone (for
example, PDT) to be displayed when summer time is in effect. See
Table 1-1
for the list the common time zone acronyms used for the
daylight_timezone_name
argument.
•
start_week end_week—
The week, ranging from 1 through 5.
EST
Eastern Standard/Summer Time as UTC +10 hours (+11 hours
during summer time)
WST
Western Standard Time as UTC +8 hours
