Configuring System Timing
The system is equipped with a clock that supplies the timestamp for statistical counters, accounting records, logging,
and event notification. After the initial configuration of the system clock, you can configure the system to communicate
with one or more Network Time Protocol (NTP) server(s) to ensure that the clock is always accurate.
and event notification. After the initial configuration of the system clock, you can configure the system to communicate
with one or more Network Time Protocol (NTP) server(s) to ensure that the clock is always accurate.
In the event of a power outage, the clock is maintained with an accuracy of +/- one minute per month for up to 10 years.
This ensures that when power is restored, the system is ready to process sessions and generate accounting, log, and
event data with accurate timestamps.

event data with accurate timestamps.
In addition to configuring the timing source, you must configure the system’s time zone.
Setting the System Clock and Time Zone
Use the following command example to configure the system clock and time zone:
clock set date:time
configure
clock timezone timezone [ local ]
end
Notes:
Enter the date and time in the format YYYY:MM:DD:HH:mm or YYYY:MM:DD:HH:mm:ss.
Refer to the online Help for the clock timezone command for a complete list of supported time zones.
The optional local keyword indicates that the time zone specified is the local timezone.
Daylight Savings Time is automatically adjusted for time zones supporting it.
Save your configuration as described in Verifying and Saving Your Configuration.
Verifying and Saving Your Clock and Time Zone Configuration
Enter the following command to verify that you configured the time and time zone correctly:
show clock
The output displays the date, time, and time zone that you configured.
