Many other time zone variables are supported. For detailed
information on configuring a time zone for the switch, refer to
your OmniSwitch 6800/6850/9000 Switch Management Guide.
Setting the Date and Time
Set the current time for the switch by entering system time,
followed by the current time in hh:mm:ss. For example:
-> system time 18:35:00
The switch uses a 24-hour clock; the time value shown in the
above example would set the time to 6:35 PM.
To set the current date for the switch, enter system date,
followed by the current date in mm/dd/yyyy. For example:
-> system date 06/27/2002
Setting Optional System
Information
This section provides information on configuring optional
system parameters, including:
• the switch’s administrative contact
• a system name
• the switch’s physical location
Specifying an Administrative Contact
An administrative contact is the person or department in
charge of the switch. If a contact is specified, users can easily
find the appropriate network administrator if they have ques-
tions or comments about the switch.
To specify an administrative contact, enter system contact,
followed by a text string of up to 254 characters. If you
include spaces between words in the text string, be sure to
enclose the string in quotes (
" ").
For example:
-> system contact "JSmith js@company.com"
