Authority Admin session except to display the date.

[MMDDhhmmCCYY]

Operands [MMDDhhmmCCYY]

Specifies the date – this requires an Admin session. If you omit [MMDDhhmmCCYY], the current date is displayed which does not require an Admin session.

Notes Network Time Protocol (NTP) must be disabled to set the time with the Date command. Refer to the Set Setup command, System operand, for information about NTP.

When setting the date and time on a switch that is enabled for SSL connections, the switch time must be within 24 hours of the workstation time. Otherwise, the connection will fail.
