Configuring the date

Configure the calendar time in the form of month, day, year, hour, minute, and second.

Prerequisites

You must log on to the Privileged EXEC mode in the NNCLI.

Procedure steps

Action

Configure the date by using the following command:

clock set <MMddyyyyhhmmss>

Specifying the primary SF/CPU

Specify the primary SF/CPU to determine which SF/CPU you use as the master after the switch performs a full power cycle only. When the SF/CPU becomes the primary, the master LED for the SF/CPU is on.

Prerequisites

You must log on to at least Privileged EXEC mode to use the show command.

You must log on to the Global Configuration mode in the NNCLI to use the configuration command in this procedure.
