SET SNTP

Syntax

set sntp [dst=enabled|disabled] [pollinterval=

value

]

[utcoffset=

value

]

Parameters

dst

Enables or disables daylight savings time.

pollinterval

Specifies the time interval between two successive

queries to the SNTP server. The range is 60 to 1200
seconds. The default is 600 seconds.

utcoffset

Specifies the time difference in hours between UTC

and local time. The range is -12 to +12 hours. The
default is 0 hours.

Description

This command enables or disables daylight savings time and sets the
polling and UTC offset times for the SNTP client software.

Note

The switch does not set DST automatically. If the switch is in a locale
that uses DST, you must remember to enable this in April when DST
begins and disable it in October when DST ends. If the switch is in a
locale that does not use DST, set this option to disabled all the time.

Example

The following command enables daylight savings time, sets the poll
interval to 300 seconds, and sets the UTC offset to -8 hours:

set sntp dst=enabled pollinterval=300 utcoffset=-8
