SNTP/Syslog
The SNTP/Syslog page sets the options for the SNTP server, time zone, Daylight Savings Time (DST) automatic clock
adjustment, and Syslog server.
About Daylight Savings Time (DST)
Support for DST is disabled by default. When enabled, the date and time are automatically adjusted forward one hour
between the starting and ending dates and times (which can be configured).
NOTE:
If Daylight Savings Time (DST) is enabled, all system time displays will be shown with the current DST start/end date/time settings.
The default time zone is set for the United Stated until at least 2015.
The time zone format is:
mo.w.d/h:m:s
, as follows:
mo
= month from January to December (1-12)
w
= week number (1-4) or the last week (5)
d
= day of week from Sunday to Saturday (0-6)
h
= hour (0-23)
m
= minute (0-59)
s
= second (0-59)

start/end day/time options – click
