Configuring System Timing
The system is equipped with a clock that supplies the timestamp for statistical counters, accounting records,
logging, and event notification. After the initial configuration of the system clock, you can configure the
system to communicate with one or more Network Time Protocol (NTP) server(s) to ensure that the clock is
always accurate.
In addition to configuring the timing source, you must configure the system's time zone.
