◗ Daylight Saving Time

This option allows you to configure the Daylight Saving Time for your chosen

time zone. Click on the Set Daylight Saving Time button to reveal the

configuration window.

Figure 69. Configuring Daylight Saving Time

Choose the month, week, day and year from the available pull-down menus

for both the Starting Time and Ending Time to establish your daylight saving

time. To apply your selections, click on the Update button in the Set Daylight

Saving Time window (not the Update button on the main page). To remove all

daylight saving time settings, simply click on the Remove button. You can

also close this window without making changes (or even after making

changes) by clicking on the Cancel button.

◗ Date and Time

This option allows you to choose between Automatic Time and Manual time

settings:

• Automatic Time (SNTP)

SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) is an adaptation of the Network

Time Protocol (NTP), used to synchronize computer clocks within the

Internet. SNTP can operate in both unicast modes (point-to-point) and

broadcast modes (point-to-multipoint). It can also operate in IP multicast

mode where this service is available. If you selected Automatic Time

(SNTP), you must choose whether you want the system to use DHCP to

obtain the SNTP Server IP address automatically, or use a pre-configured

static IP address. If you select the latter option, you must enter a valid IP

address in the SNTP Server IP Address field.
