Chapter 8 System

Use the Time Options page (System > Configuration > Time Options) to configure the timezone and timekeeping mechanism for the device:

Internal CMOS Clock — Configures the device to keep time independently using its internal clock.

NTP Server — Configures the device to synchronize its internal clock by querying user-defined Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers.

Time Zone — Logs are kept in Universal Time (UTC or Greenwich Mean Time). Use this option to configure the time zone so that log times are translated into local values when displayed.

The following figure shows the Time Options page:
