Release F.05.05 (Beta Release Only)
Time Zone Issue
Starting with the F.05.xx version of the switch software, the method of configuring the Time Zone
for TimeP or SNTP configuration has been updated. Previous switch software, for all ProCurve
switches, used positive time offset values for time zones that are West of GMT and negative values
for time zones that are East of GMT. The standards indicate that time zones West of GMT should be
designated by negative offset values, and time zones East of GMT by positive values. Software version
F. 05 .xx updates this configuration method, but if you use the same values for indicating time zones
as you did for previous ProCurve switches, the time will be set incorrectly on your ProCurve Switches
2512 and 2524. For example, for previous ProCurve switches, the US Pacific time zone was configured
by entering +480. With software version F.05.xx, the US Pacific time zone must now be configured
by entering -480.
