3.5.4Date and Time
If the DHCP server in your network provides information about the SNTP server access, the correct date and time is automatically shown on the phone. If the DHCP server in your network does not provide an SNTP address, you have to set the SNTP address manually, using the SNTP IP address parameter. If no SNTP server is available, you have to configure the date and time manually.
For correct display of the current time, the Timezone offset must be set appropriately. This is the time offset from UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). If, for instance, the phone is located in Munich, Germany, the offset is +1 (or simply 1); if it is located in Los Angeles, USA, the offset is
If the phone is located in a country with daylight saving, the administrator can choose whether daylight saving time is activated manually or automatically. If Daylight saving is enabled, and Auto time change is disabled, daylight saving time (DST) is in effect immediately. If Auto time change is enabled, daylight saving is controlled by the Time zone parameter. This selects the daylight saving time zone which is characterized by the start and end date for daylight saving time.
The Difference (minutes) provides the time difference for daylight saving time in minutes. This parameter is required also when Auto time change is enabled. In Germany, for instance, as in most countries, this is +60.
