CLI
– Use the
reload
command to restart the switch. When prompted,
confirm that you want to reset the switch.
Note:
When restarting the system, it will always run the Power-On
Self-Test.
Setting the System Clock
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) allows the switch to set its internal
clock based on periodic updates from a time server (SNTP or NTP).
Maintaining an accurate time on the switch enables the system log to
record meaningful dates and times for event entries. You can also manually
set the clock using the CLI. (See “calendar set” on page 4-77.) If the clock
is not set, the switch will only record the time from the factory default set
at the last bootup.
When the SNTP client is enabled, the switch periodically sends a request
for a time update to a configured time server. You can configure up to
three time server IP addresses. The switch will attempt to poll each server
in the configured sequence.
Configuring SNTP
You can configure the switch to send time synchronization requests to
time servers.
