Displaying the Time and Date Configuration

To display the time and date configuration, use the

show clock [detail]

privileged EXEC command.

The system clock keeps an authoritative flag that shows whether the time is
authoritative (believed to be accurate). If the system clock has been set by a
timing source such as NTP, the flag is set. If the time is not authoritative, it is used
only for display purposes. Until the clock is authoritative and the authoritative
flag is set, the flag prevents peers from synchronizing to the clock when the peers’
time is invalid.

The symbol that precedes the

show clock

display has this meaning:

*

Time is not authoritative.

(blank) Time is authoritative.
.

Time is authoritative, but NTP is not synchronized.

Configuring the Time Zone

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to manually configure
the time zone:

1. Enter global configuration mode.

configure terminal

2. Set the time zone.

The wireless device keeps internal time in universal time coordinated
(UTC), so this command is used only for display purposes and when the
time is manually set.
For

zone

, enter the name of the time zone to be displayed when

standard time is in effect. The default is UTC.

For

hours-offset

, enter the hours offset from UTC.

(Optional) For

minutes-offset

, enter the minutes offset from

UTC.
