Your Server Switch uses one of the following means to maintain system time:
• an on-board system clock
• an external NTP server (recommended)
When you first power on your Server Switch, factory-default system clock settings run. To ensure
accurate synchronization, we recommend that you use an external NTP server, as it will synchronize log
dates with other management systems. To configure NTP servers, refer to the “ntp” section on page 2-55.
Examples The following example sets the clock time to 7:22 PM and 10 seconds on the 25th of May, 2015:
SFS-7000P# clock set 19:22:10 25 05 15
