Parameters and
variables
Description
enable Disables SNTP.
server
Clears stored SNTP server addresses.
sync-interval Restores the default SNTP re-synchronization interval.
Setting local time zone
SNTP uses Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) for all time synchronizations
so it is not affected by different time zones. In order for the switch report
the correct time for your local time zone and daylight savings time, you
must use the following commands:
•
"clock time-zone" (page 213)
•
"no clock time-zone" (page 213)
•
"clock summer-time" (page 213)
