Chapter 11. Configuration
11.1. Set date and time
Accessing this section allows you to set the system date and time either manually or using a network time server. Pull-down menus
for month and time zone ensure accurate entry. The server manager will reset the time automatically during daylight savings time.
There are worldwide time zones with multiple selections for countries with multiple time zones. (including standard time zones,
states/provinces and even cities). This ensures that regional variations in time zones and daylight savings time are accurately
reflected.
Instead of setting the time manually, you can use a network time server. A time server is a device on the Internet that keeps accurate
time and is able to communicate the time to other computers over the Internet using the Network Time Protocol (NTP). Many
organizations around the world provide Internet time servers for free.
