3.8.5 Date and Time (Administrator Only)
The gateway can be configured to update the date and time automatically, either from a cellular network of an NTP
server. If you choose to use an NTP server, you must enter the URLs of one or more NTP servers, select the local time
zone, and specify the dates in which daylight savings time is in force. If you choose to use a cellular network, these
settings are set automatically.
 To configure the gateway to update the date and time automatically:
1 Click the Date and Time link. (Alternatively click the Date and Time icon in the “Advanced” screen of the WBM.)
The Date and Time settings screen appears.
Figure 132 - Date and Time Screen
2 Select the Enabled check box under the Automatic Time Update section.
3 Select the protocol to be used to perform the time update.
4 In the Timing parameters fields, specify the time intervals of performing the update:
4.1 ‘Start up update time’ – specifies the L13 system start up initialization time interval. This time interval
starts from the system cold or power resets.
4.2 ‘‘Start up update period’ – specifies the interval between retries when attempting to update the time
during the system startup.
4.3 ‘Updating period’ – specifies the interval between retries when attempting to update the time after the
system startup is finished.
5. If you selected the NTP protocol, under Time Server, click the New Entry link. The Time Server Settings screen
opens.
