ProSAFE 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch XS728T and XS748T User Manual
Configure the Time Setting Manually
Use the Time Configuration page to view and adjust date and time settings.
To manually configure the time setting:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Change the Default IP Address of the
Switch on page 10.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Management > Time > SNTP Global Configuration.
6. Select the Clock Source Local radio button.
7. In the Date field, specify the current date in months, days, and years (DD-MMM-YYYY).
8. In the Time field, specify the current time in hours, minutes, and seconds (HH:MM:SS).
Note: If you do not enter a date and time, the switch calculates the date and
time using the CPU’s clock cycle.
9. Click the Apply button.
The updated configuration is sent to the switch. Configuration changes take effect
immediately.
Configure an SNTP Server
SNTP assures accurate network device clock time synchronization up to the millisecond.
Time synchronization is performed by a network SNTP server. The switch operates only as
an SNTP client and cannot provide time services to other systems.
Time sources are established by strata. Strata define the accuracy of the reference clock.
The higher the stratum (where zero is the highest), the more accurate the clock. The device
receives time from Stratum 1 and above since it is itself a Stratum 2 device.
