uptime]

○ localtime: You can add the keyword localtime to view timestamp in system local time that includes the local time
zone.
○ show-timezone: Enter the keyword to include the time zone information in the timestamp.
○ msec: Enter the keyword msec to include milliseconds in the timestamp.
○ uptime: To view time since last boot.
