To apply the correct system date on the Araknis AN-300-SW-F/R-8, follow these steps:

1. Enable the NTP client (disabled by default).
2. Select a server from the preconfigured list or enter a custom NTP server address.
3. Ensure the device has a Default Gateway configured for NTP to work.
4. Optionally, manually set the time in the format “YYYY:MM:DD:HH:MM:SS” or click "Sync Time" to pull time from your PC.
5. Set the correct Time Zone based on the switch’s location.
6. Configure Daylight Savings Time as Disabled, Automatic (for U.S. rules), or Manual (for custom DST start/end dates).

These steps ensure the switch displays the correct system date.

    4.8— Quality of service (QoS) is the overall performance of a network, particularly the performance seen by the users of the network. This is usually measured by several related aspects of the Advanced QoS network service, such as error rates, bandwidth, throughput, transmission delay, availability, jitter, etc.
