System Information

For example, the time zone setting for Berlin, Germany is +60 (zone +1, or 60 minutes), and the time zone setting for Vancouver, Canada is -480 (zone -8, or -480 minutes). To configure the time zone and daylight time rule for Vancouver, Canada:

ProCurve(config)# time timezone -480 daylight-time-rule continental-us-and-canada

Configure the Time and Date. The switch uses the time command to con­ figure both the time of day and the date. Also, executing time without param­ eters lists the switch’s time of day and date. Note that the CLI uses a 24-hour clock scheme; that is, hour (hh) values from 1 p.m. to midnight are input as 13 - 24, respectively.

Syntax: time [ hh:mm [ :ss ]] [ mm/dd/ [ yy ] yy ]For example, to set the switch to 9:45 a.m. on November 17, 2002:ProCurve(config)# time 9:45 11/17/02

Executing reload or boot resets the time and date to their default startup values.
