DESCRIPTION
Choose a descriptive name for identification purposes. This name consists of up to 31
English keyboard characters; spaces are not allowed.
Enter the geographic location of your system. You can use up to 31 English keyboard
characters; spaces are not allowed.
Enter the name of the person in charge of this system. You can use up to 31 English
keyboard characters; spaces are not allowed.
Enter the number (an integer from 1 to 65535) of the frame (rack) where the system is
installed.
Enter a chassis number (an integer from 1 to 64). The chassis number helps to keep track
of this individual unit in a multiple unit application.
This field displays your device type.
This field shows how long the system has been running since the last time it was started.
This field displays the time and date that the system's configuration was last saved to the
non-volatile memory. The time is in (24-hour) hour, minute and second format. The date
is in year, month and day format.
Specify how long an administrator's configuration session can remain idle before the
system automatically logs the administrator out.
Specify a note to display when users attempt to log into the system's management
interfaces.
Enter the time service protocol that a timeserver uses. Not all timeservers support all
protocols, so you may have to use trial and error to find a protocol that works. The main
differences between them are the time format.
When you select the Daytime (RFC 867) format, the system displays the day, month,
year and time with no time zone adjustment. When you use this format it is
recommended that you use a Daytime timeserver within your geographical time zone.
Time (RFC-868) format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total number of seconds
since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.
NTP (RFC-1305) is similar to Time (RFC 868).
None is the default value. Enter the time manually. Each time you turn on the system,
the time and date will be reset to 2000-1-1 0:0.
Enter the IP address (or URL if you configure a domain name server in the IP Setup
screen) of your timeserver. The system searches for the timeserver for up to 60 seconds.
If you select a timeserver that is unreachable, then this screen will appear locked for 60
seconds. Please wait.
This field displays the time you open this menu (or refresh the menu).
Enter the new time in hour, minute and second format. The new time then appears in the
Current Time field after you click Apply.
This field displays the date you open this menu.
Enter the new date in year, month and day format. The new date then appears in the
Current Date field after you click Apply.
Select the time difference between UTC (Universal Time Coordinated, formerly known as
GMT, Greenwich Mean Time) and your time zone from the drop-down list box.
Click Apply to save the changes in this screen to the system's volatile memory. The
system loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Config Save link
on the navigation panel and then the Save button to save your changes to the non-
volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
