1. Log into the switch using the default password, which is password.
2. Enter the tsTimeZone command as follows.
The following procedure describes how to set the current time zone to Pacific
Standard Time using interactive mode.
1. Enter the tsTimeZone command as follows:
2. You are prompted to select a general location.
3. Enter the appropriate number or enter Ctrl+D to quit.
4. At the prompt, select a country location from the list.
5. At the prompt, enter the appropriate number to specify the time zone region or
Synchronizing local time using NTP
Perform the following steps to synchronize the local time using NTP.
1. Log into the switch using the default password, which is password.
2. Enter the tsClockServer command.
The following example shows how to set up more than one NTP server using a
DNS name:
switch:admin> tsclockserver "10.32.170.1;10.32.170.2;ntp.localdomain.net"
Updating Clock Server configuration...done.
Updated with the NTP servers
Changes to the clock server value on the principal or primary FCS switch are
propagated to all switches in the fabric
Inter-Switch Link (ISL) Trunking
ISL Trunking is optional software that allows you to create trunking group of ISLs
between adjacent switches. Up to eight FC ports on the SAN24B-5 can be used as a
trunking group to achieve speeds up to 128 Gbps (256 Gbps full duplex) for
optimal bandwidth utilization and load balancing. For more information about ISL
Trunking, see the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide.

SAN24B-5 Installation, Service, and User Guide
Use timezonename to set the time zone by time zone ID, such as PST or
Country/City. The following example shows how to change the time zone from
US/Pacific to US/Central. The tsTimeZone command by itself display the
current time zone.
switch:admin> tstimezone
Time Zone : US/Pacific
switch:admin> tstimezone US/Central
switch:admin> tstimezone
Time Zone : US/Central
switch:admin> tstimezone --interactive
Please identify a location so that time zone rules can be set correctly.
Ctrl+D to quit.
switch:admin> tsclockserver "<ntp1;ntp2>"
In the syntax ntp1 is the IP address or DNS name of the first NTP server, which
the switch must be able to access. The value ntp2 is the name of the second
NTP server and is optional. The entire operand "<ntp1;ntp2>"is optional; by
default, this value is LOCL, which uses the local clock of the principal or
primary switch as the clock server.
switch:admin> tsclockserver
LOCL
switch:admin> tsclockserver "132.163.135.131"
switch:admin> tsclockserver
132.163.135.131
switch:admin>
