Setting the Time Zone: Example

The following example shows how to set the time zone to Pacific Standard Time with an offset of 10
hours behind UTC.

Configuring Daylight Saving Time
The Cisco SCE platform can be configured to automatically switch to daylight saving time on a specified
date, and also to switch back to standard time. In addition, the time zone code can be configured to vary
with daylight saving time if required. (For instance, in the eastern United States, standard time is
designated EST, and daylight saving time is designated EDT).

Options
The transition times into and out of daylight saving time may be configured in one of two ways,
depending on how the dates for the beginning and end of daylight saving time are determined for the
particular location:

recurring—If daylight saving time always begins and ends on the same day every year, (as in the
United States), the clock summer-time recurring command is used. The beginning and ending days
for daylight saving time can be configured once, and the system will automatically perform the
switch every year.
not recurring—If the start and end of daylight saving time is different every year, (as in Israel), the
clock summer-time command is used. In this case, the transitions must be configured every year
for that particular year. (Note that "year" is not necessarily a calendar year. If the transition days are
determined in the fall, the transitions for that fall and the next spring may be configured.)
Configuring Time Clocks and Time Zone
Purpose
Removes the timezone configuration and resets
the timezone to the default value (UTC).
