Description

Assigns a time zone name to the time server.

 

The Custom option allows you to customize additional time zone parameters.

 

The DP-Dhcpoption allows you to enable and disable a DHCP Option 2 value for the

 

phone to use as an offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). If this parameter is

 

enabled, the phone derives the time and date from UTC and the time offset offered by

 

the DHCP server.

 

Notes:

 

Assigning the name “Custom” (with initial cap) in the configuration files, allows you to

 

create a custom time zone using the additional parameters in the section “Custom

 

Time Zone and DST Settings” on page A-47.

 

When DHCP Option 2 is enabled on the phone, the phone still uses the custom time-

 

zone configuration settings to control daylight savings time.

 

The default behavior for the phone is to use the NTP server from Option 42 (or current

 

configuration setting) and the current timezone settings.
