the configuration data. For more information, refer to

and Restoring Configuration Data

on page 3-29.

Configure Date and Time

Use the procedures in this section to display and change the date and
time set on the switch. You must set the current date and time on the

Alerts Log
.

The Configure Date and Time dialog box displays.

If the Periodic Date/Time Synchronization check box in the Configure
Date and Time
dialog box is selected, the EFC Server periodically
synchronizes the switch time to the EFC Server

,

and daylight

savings time automatically updates. When the Periodic Date/Time
Synchronization
option is selected, the Date and Time fields are
disabled (grayed out).

If the Periodic Date/Time Synchronization check box is not selected,
you can set the EFC Server date and time manually.
