Time/Date

A-A-C

 

 

Gives the user the ability to configure the local time and date on the DSL card with network time and to synchronize the DSLAM's clock via a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.

Local Time/Date ± Enter the time in hh.mm format (am or pm). Enter the date in mm/dd/yy format.

Client NTP Mode ± Broadcast/Unicast (Default = Broadcast). Select the Client Network Time Protocol (NTP) Mode.

NTP Server ± nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn format. Enter the NTP Server IP address.

Synchronized(hrs) ± 1±24 (Default = 1). Enter the hours between synchronization.

NOTE: At system boot time, the time on the DSL cards automatically synchronizes with the MCC card. Therefore it is usually not necessary to use this screen on the DSL card.

NVRAM Clear Screen (Clear NVRAM)

A-A-D

 

 

Gives the user the ability to clear out the Non-Volatile RAM (NVRAM) in order to reuse the card or to reconfigure the current card.

CAUTION: If you select yes on this screen, you will permanently remove most of the configuration information you have stored on this card and all IP addresses and routing tables will have to be re-entered. The system will perform a reset and return to the factory configuration.
