5.2.2 NTP

Network Time Protocol (NTP) syncs the network time based Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). If you’re using the NTP mode, you can select a built-in NTP time server or manually specify a user-defined NTP server and Time Zone. The switch will sync the time short- ly after you press the “Apply” button. Though it synchronizes the time automatically, NTP does not update the time periodically without user intervention.

Time Zone is an offset time of GMT. To get the correct time, you have to select the time zone first and then sync the time via NTP because the switch will combine this time zone offset and updated NTP time to produce the local time. The switch supports configurable time zone from -12 to +13 (time zone)

Default Time zone: UTC+8
