CLI – Use the reload command to restart the switch. When prompted, confirm that
you want to reset the switch.
Note: When restarting the system, it will always run the Power-On Self-Test.
Setting the System Clock
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 an
accurate time on the switch enables the system log to record meaningful da tes and
times for event entries. You can also manually set the clock using the CLI. (See
“calendar set” on page 4-53.) If the clock is not set, the switch will only record the
time from the factory default set at the las t 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 three time server IP
addresses. The switch will attempt to poll each server in the configured sequence.
