Problems with Date and Time

The E-Mail menu in the Content Filtering section displays the current date and time of day. The
FR328S Firewall uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of
several Network Time Servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with the date and
time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include:

Date shown is January 1, 2000

Cause: The firewall has not yet successfully reached a Network Time Server. Check that your
Internet access settings are configured correctly. If you have just completed configuring the
firewall, wait at least five minutes and check the date and time again.

Time is off by one hour

Cause: The firewall does not automatically sense Daylight Savings Time. In the E-Mail menu,
check or uncheck the box marked “Adjust for Daylight Savings Time”.
