Setting the Date, Time, and Daylight Saving Time
The current date and time is supported on the Cisco SIP IP phone via SNTP and is displayed on the
phone's LCD. In addition to supporting the current date and time, Daylight Saving Time (DST) and time
zone settings are also supported. DST can be configured to be obtained via an absolute (for example,
starts on April 1 and ends on October 1) or relative (for example, starts the first Sunday in April and ends
on the last day of October) configuration.
The format for the date can be set using the
International time zone abbreviations are supported and are case sensitive (must be in all capital letters).

follow from the SIP IP phone to the specified IP address. Use
the following two arguments:
• ip-address: The dotted IP address or alphanumeric
address (host name) of the host to which you are sending
the traceroute.
ttl: The time-to-live value, or the number of routers
•
(hops) through which the datagram can pass. The default
value is 30.
