CLI – Use the reload command to restart the ECN330-switch.
Note: When restarting the system, it will always run the Power-On Self-Test.
6.3.15 Setting the System Clock
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) allows the ECN330-switch to set its
internal clock based on periodic updates from a time server (SNTP or NTP).
Maintaining an accurate time on the ECN330-switch enables the system log to
record meaningful dates and times for event entries. The clock can also be set
manually using the CLI. (See “calendar set” on page 606.) If the clock is not set,
the ECN330-switch will only record the time from the factory default set at the
last bootup.
When the SNTP client is enabled, the ECN330-switch periodically sends a
request for a time update to a configured time server. Up to three time server IP
addresses can be configured. The ECN330-switch will attempt to poll each
server in the configured sequence.
6.3.15.1 Configuring SNTP
The ECN330-switch can be configured to send time synchronization requests to
time servers.
Command Attributes
• SNTP Client – Configures the ECN330-switch to operate as an SNTP
client. This requires at least one time server to be specified in the SNTP
Server field. (Default: Disabled)
• SNTP Poll Interval – Sets the interval between sending requests for a
time update from a time server. (Range: 16-16284 seconds; Default: 16
seconds)
• SNTP Server – Sets the IP address for up to three time servers. The
ECN330-switch attempts to update the time from the first server, if this
fails it attempts an update from the next server in the sequence.
