HP Procurve switches provide a way to automatically adjust the system clock for Daylight Savings Time (DST) changes. To use this feature you define the month and date to begin and to end the change from standard time. In addition to the value “none” (no time changes), there are five pre-defined settings, named:

Alaska

Canada and Continental US

Middle Europe and Portugal

Southern Hemisphere

Western Europe

The pre-defined settings follow these rules:

Alaska:

Begin DST at 2am the first Sunday on or after April 24th.

End DST at 2am the first Sunday on or after October 25th.

Canada and Continental US:

Begin DST at 2am the first Sunday on or after April 1st.

End DST at 2am the first Sunday on or after October 25th.
