recurring pattern (configure the exact date and time of the next summer time events):
The first part of the clock summer-time global configuration command specifies when summer time
begins, and the second part specifies when it ends. All times are relative to the local time zone. The start

the ending month, the system assumes that you are in the southern hemisphere.

the ending month, the system assumes that you are in the southern hemisphere.
To disable summer time, use the no clock summer-time global configuration command.
