Configuring and Managing Time Parameters
You can configure the system time and date statically or by using Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers. In each case,
you can specify the offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) by setting the time zone. You also can configure
WSS Software to offset the time by an additional hour for daylight savings time or similar summertime period.
To statically set the time and date:
Set the time zone (set timezone command)
Set the summertime period (set summertime command)
Set the time and date (set timedate command)
To use NTP servers to set the time and date:
Set the time zone (set timezone command)
Set the summertime period (set summertime command)
Configure NTP server information (set ntp commands)
Note. Nortel recommends that you set the time and date parameters before you install
certificates on the WSS switch. Generally, certificates are valid for one year beginning with
the system time and date that are in effect when you generate the certificate request. If the
switch’s time and date are incorrect, the certificate might not be valid.
Note. Configure summertime before you set the time and date. Otherwise,
summertime’s adjustment of the time will make the time incorrect, if the date is within the
summertime period.
