Configuring Summer Time (Daylight Saving Time)
To configure summer time (daylight saving time) in areas where it starts and ends on a particular day of
the week each year, perform this task:
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 clock timezone zone hours-offset
[minutes-offset]
Sets the time zone.
The switch keeps internal time in universal time coordinated (UTC), so
this command is used only for display purposes and when the time is
manually set.
zone—Enters the name of the time zone to be displayed when
standard time is in effect. The default is UTC.
hours-offset—Enters the hours offset from UTC.
(Optional) minutes-offset—Enters the minutes offset from UTC.
Step 3 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 clock summer-time zone recurring
[week day month hh:mm week day month
hh:mm [offset]]
Configures summer time to start and end on the specified days every year.
Summer time is disabled by default. If you specify clock summer-time
zone recurring without parameters, the summer time rules default to the
United States rules.
zone—Specifies the name of the time zone (for example, PDT) to be
displayed when summer time is in effect.
(Optional) week—Specifies the week of the month (1 to 5 or last).
(Optional) day—Specifies the day of the week (Sunday, Monday...).
(Optional) month—Specifies the month (January, February...).
(Optional) hh:mm—Specifies the time (24-hour format) in hours and
minutes.
(Optional) offset—Specifies the number of minutes to add during
summer time. The default is 60.
Step 3 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
