3-1-3. Time Configuration
The switch provides manual and automatic ways to set the system time via
NTP. Manual setting is simple; just input “Year”, “Month”, “Day”, “Hour”, “Minute” and
“Second” within the valid value range indicated in each item. If you input an invalid
value, for example, 61 in minute, the switch will clamp the figure to 59.
NTP is a well-known protocol used to synchronize the clock of the switch
system time over a network. The version of NTP, an internet draft standard
formalized in RFC 1305, that has been adopted on the system is version 3 protocol.
The switch provides four built-in NTP server IP addresses resident in the Internet
and a user-defined NTP server IP address. The time zone is Greenwich-centered
which uses the expression form of GMT+/- xx hours.

button, the device will reject the time
adjustment request. There is no time zone setting in Manual mode.
