18.2.1 Resetting the Time

The ZyAIR resets the time in three instances:
System Maintenance and Information
Enter the time service protocol that your time server sends when you turn on the
ZyAIR. Not all time servers support all protocols, so you may have to check with your
ISP/network administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works. The
main differences between them are the format.
Daytime (RFC 867) format is day/month/year/time zone of the server.
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).
Select Manual to enter the new time and new date manually.
Enter the IP address or domain name of your time server. Check with your
ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this information.
This field displays an updated time only when you reenter this menu.
Enter the new time in hour, minute and second format. This field is available when
you select Manual in the Time Protocol field.
This field displays an updated date only when you re-enter this menu.
Enter the new date in year, month and day format. This field is available when you
select Manual in the Time Protocol field.
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to set the time difference between your time
zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Daylight Saving Time is a period from late spring to early fall when many countries
set their clocks ahead of normal local time by one hour to give more daylight time in
the evenings. If you use daylight savings time, then choose Yes.
Enter the month and day that your daylight-savings time starts on if you selected Yes
in the Daylight Saving field.
Enter the month and day that your daylight-savings time ends on if you selected Yes
in the Daylight Saving field.
