Setting System Time and Daylight Savings Time

Use the Manual Time Settings page to set system date/time manually (as

opposed to receiving them from an external SNTP server). For more

information on SNTP, see "System Time from an SNTP Server" on page 73.
If system time is kept using an external SNTP clock, and the external SNTP

clock fails, the system time reverts to the time set here or in the Asset page.
In addition to setting the local clock, you can use this page to enable Daylight

Savings Time (DST) on the device.
The following is a list of DST start and end times in various countries:

Albania — Last weekend of March until the last weekend of October.

Australia — From the end of October until the end of March.

March.
