Use Time Server
When Bootup
Select the time service protocol that the timeserver uses. Not all time servers
support all protocols, so you may have to use trial and error to find a protocol
that works. The main differences between them are the time format.
When you select the Daytime (RFC 867) format, the switch displays the day,
month, year and time with no time zone adjustment. When you use this format it
is recommended that you use a Daytime timeserver within your geographical
time zone. Time (RFC-868) format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total
number of seconds since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.
NTP (RFC-1305) is similar to Time (RFC-868).
None is the default value. Enter the time manually. Each time you turn on the
device, the time and date will be reset to 2000-1-1 0:0.
Time Server IP
Address
Enter the IP address of your timeserver. The device searches for the timeserver
for up to 60 seconds.
Current Time This field displays the time you open this menu (or refresh the menu).
New Time
(hh:min:ss)
Enter the new time in hour, minute and second format. The new time then
appears in the Current Time field after you click Apply.

New Date (yyyy-
mm-dd)
Enter the new date in year, month and day format. The new date then appears
in the Current Date field after you click Apply.

known as GMT, Greenwich Mean Time) and your time zone from the drop-down
list box.
