DST End Date (MM-DD):
Change the daylight savings time end date by selecting the number and
typing a two-digit number for the month, a hyphen, and then a two-digit number for the day of the
month (for example, April 1 = 04-01).
SNTP Configuration
Use an SNTP server:
Select this check box to enable the use of SNTP (Simple Network Timing
Protocol) to retrieve date and time information from the network. Using SNTP requires that a SNTP
server is running on the network and is reachable by the NetXpress LX system through one of its IP
network interfaces. In some configurations, you might need to add a route to the forwarding table, as
well as the access list of the IP interface, before the NetXpress LX system can reach the SNTP server.
If SNTP is enabled, the system time and data is automatically updated to match the time information
received from the SNTP server.
You can change these two fields if the
Use an SNTP server

SNTP server address:
Type the IP address of the SNTP server.
GMT offset:
Type the offset for the local time in +/- minutes from the GMT time.
