Date and Time
Configuration – Systems> Date and Time
The router keeps track of calendar time using an internal real time clock (RTC) device. The
clock is used to time/date stamp logfiles. The date and time configuration pages allow the
system time to be set and maintained. Since maintaining an accurate system clock can be
important for routers on the Internet, NTP and SNTP services are supported and the router
may be configured to use one of these protocols for maintaining the internal system time.
The router uses the 24-hour clock.
