Time Protocol
Select this option to use Network Time Protocol (NTP) for the time service.
NTP Server
Select a pre-designated time server or type the IP address or type the domain name
of your time server. The Switch searches for the timeserver for up to 60 seconds.
Time Zone
Select the time difference between UTC (Universal Time Coordinated, formerly known
as GMT, Greenwich Mean Time) and your time zone from the drop-down list box.
Daylight Saving Settings
State
Select Enable if you want to use Daylight Saving Time. Otherwise, select Disable to
turn it off.
Start Date
Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you enabled Daylight
Saving Time. The time is displayed in the 24 hour format. Here are a couple of examples:
Daylight Saving Time starts in most parts of the United States on the second Sunday of
March. Each time zone in the United States starts using Daylight Saving Time at 2 A.M.
local time. So in the United States you would select Second, Sunday, March and 2:00.
Daylight Saving Time starts in the European Union on the last Sunday of March. All of the
time zones in the European Union start using Daylight Saving Time at the same moment
(1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would select Last, Sunday, March
and the last field depends on your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would select
2:00 because Germany’s time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1).
End Date
Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time ends if you enabled Daylight
Saving Time. The time field uses the 24 hour format.
Here are a couple of examples:
Daylight Saving Time ends in the United States on the last Sunday of October. Each
time zone in the United States stops using Daylight Saving Time at 2 A.M. local time.
So in the United States you would select First, Sunday, November and 2:00.
Daylight Saving Time ends in the European Union on the last Sunday of October.
All of the time zones in the European Union stop using Daylight Saving Time at the
same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would select
Last, Sunday, October and the last field depends on your time zone. In Germany for
instance, you would select 2:00 because Germany’s time zone is one hour ahead of
GMT or UTC (GMT+1).
