Use Time Server
When Bootup Enter the time service protocol that a timeserver sends when you turn on the switch. Not all
timeservers support all protocols, so you may have to use trial and error to find a protocol that
works. The main differences between them are the time format.
Daytime (RFC 867) format is day/month/year/time zone of the server.
Time (RFC-868) format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total number of seconds since
1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.
NTP (RFC-1305) is similar to Time (RFC-868).
None is the default value. Enter the time manually. Each time you turn on the switch, the time
and date will be reset to 1970-1-1 0:0.
Time Server IP
Address Enter the IP address (or URL if you configure a domain name server in the IP Setup screen) of
your timeserver. The switch searches for the timeserver for up to 60 seconds. If you select a
timeserver that is unreachable, then this screen will appear locked for 60 seconds. Please
wait.
