Setup > Time
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) allows the Switch to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a time server (SNTP or NTP).. Maintaining accurate time on the Switch enables the system log to record meaningful dates and times for event entries.. If the clock is not set, the Switch will only record the time from the factory default set at the last bootup.. When the SNTP client is enabled, the Switch periodically sends a request for a time update to a configured time server.. You can configure up to two time server IP addresses.. The Switch will attempt to poll each server in the sequence..
