C H A P T E R 3 Accessing the Switch
Using the Simple Network Time
Protocol
The switch supports the client portion of the Simple Network Time
Protocol (SNTP) Version 3 based on RFC1769. SNTP can be used
by the switch to update and synchronize its internal clock from a
Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. When enabled, the switch
sends out a periodic query to the indicated NTP server, or the switch
listens to broadcast NTP updates. In addition, the switch supports
the configured setting for Greenwich Mean time (GMT) offset and
the use of Daylight Savings Time.
