Configuring the GigaVUE TA Series Host Name
It is generally a good idea to configure the GigaVUE node’s name, date, and
time as part of your initial configuration. The following command shows how
to set the system name. Refer to
Configuring GigaVUE TA Series Node’s
Time Options on page 77 for information on setting options related to time
and date.
Setting the System Name
1.
Use the hostname command to specify the system name. For example:
(config) # hostname GigaVUE-Customer
Configuring GigaVUE TA Series Node’s Time Options
The GigaVUE TA Series nodes include a variety of features for setting the
time, including:
Setting Time Manually
The easiest way to set the GigaVUE node’s time is manually with the clock
set command. For example:
(config) # clock set 05:18:38 2011/05/24
N
OTE
:
Even if you are using NTP/SNTP, It is a good idea to configure time
manually as well. The GigaVUE node will automatically fall back to the
manual time setting if it is unable to synchronize with the specified time
server.
The show ntp will show the current state of the NTP server in use; the show
clock command shows the current GigaVUE node’s time.
Performing One-Time NTP Server Synchronization
You can perform a one-time synchronization with an NTP server using the
ntpdate command. For example:
(config) # ntpdate time.nist.gov
Note that this method does not provide updates to correct clock drift over
time. It is generally preferable to use persistent NTP synchronization with the
ntp commands.
