SNTP Configuration
SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) is a simplified version of NTP which is an Internet
protocol used to synchronize the clocks of computers with some time reference. Because
time usually just advances, the time on different node stations might be different. With the
communicating programs running on those devices, it would cause time to jump forward
and back, a non-desirable effect. Therefore, the switch provides comprehensive
mechanisms to access national time and frequency dissemination services, organize the
time-synchronization subnet and the local clock in each participating subnet peer.
Daylight Saving Time (DST) is the convention of advancing clocks so that afternoons
have more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one
hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward in autumn.

SNTP Client: Enable/disable the SNTP function to get the time from the SNTP
server.

Daylight Saving Time: This function is used to enable/disable Daylight Saving
Period and Daylight Saving Offset fields.

UTC Timezone: Set the location time zone for the switch. The following table lists
different location time zones for your reference.
