CLI – This example configures the switch to operate as an SNTP client
and then displays the current time and settings.
Setting the Time Zone
SNTP uses Coordinated Universal Time (or UTC, formerly Greenwich
Mean Time, or GMT) based on the time at the Earth’s prime meridian,
zero degrees longitude. To display a time corresponding to your local time,
you must indicate the number of hours and minutes your time zone is east
(before) or west (after) of UTC.
Command Attributes
• Current Time – Displays the current time.
• Name – Assigns a name to the time zone.
• Hours (0-13) – The number of hours before/after UTC.
