Paging a Switch

To help you locate a particular switch in a rack of switches, you can turn on the beacon feature with the Set Beacon command. This causes all port Logged-In LEDs to flash in unison. The following is an example of how to turn the beacon on and off.

SANbox #> set beacon on

SANbox $> set beacon off

Setting the Date and Time

The switch date and time can be set explicitly using the Date command or it can be set automatically through a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. The Date command also displays the current time. Unlike the Date command, the NTP server also synchronizes the date and time on the switch with the date and time on the workstation. Synchronized date and time is required for Secure Socket Layer (SSL) connections.

You can also set the time zone using the Set Timezone command. The default time zone is Universal Time (UTC) also known as Greenwich Mean Time. Changing the time zone also converts the current time to the time in the new time zone. For this reason, if you are not using an NTP server, set the time zone first, then set the date and time.

To use an NTP server, you must enable the NTP client on the switch and specify an IP address for the NTP server.

NOTE: To set the date with the Date command, the NTP client must be disabled.
