In the Time Zone field, click the drop-down arrow, and select your time zone from the list.
If the daylight saving time applies to your time zone, verify the Automatic Daylight Saving Time Adjustment checkbox is selected.
If the daylight saving time rules are not available for the selected time zone, the checkbox is not configurable.
Choose one of the methods to set the date and time:
To customize the date and time, select the User Specified Time radio button, and then enter the date and time in appropriate fields. Use the yyyy-mm-dd format for the date and the hh:mm:ss format for the time.
To set the date, delete existing numbers in the Date field and type new ones, or click the calendar icon to select a date.
The time is measured in 24-hour format so enter 13 for 1:00pm, 14 for 2:00pm, and so on. You can enter the time by deleting existing numbers and typing new ones in the hour, minute and second fields, or clicking the arrows to adjust each number.
To let an NTP server set the date and time, select the "Synchronize with NTP Server" radio button. There are two ways to assign the NTP servers.
To use the DHCP-assigned NTP servers, make sure the "Always use the servers below and ignore DHCP-provided servers" checkbox is deselected. This method is usable only when either IPv4 or IPv6 DHCP is enabled.
To use the NTP servers that are manually specified, select the "Always use the servers below and ignore DHCP-provided servers" checkbox, and specify the primary NTP server in the First Time Server field. A secondary NTP server is optional. You may click Check NTP Servers to verify the validity and accessibility of the specified NTP servers.
Note: If the PXE device's IP address is assigned through IPv4 or IPv6 DHCP, the NTP servers can be automatically discovered. When this occurs, the data you entered in the fields of First and Second Time Server will be overridden.
Click OK.
The PXE follows the NTP server sanity check per the IETF RFC. If your PXE has problems synchronizing with a Windows NTP server, see Windows NTP Server Synchronization Solution.
