You can click Restart DHCP to assign a new IP address using DHCP.
Click the Save Settings button to save your changes or click Cancel Changes to discard the information.
Setup Tab - Time
The Time screen allows you to configure the time settings for the Switch. Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
allows the Switch to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a time server (SNTP or NTP).
Maintaining an accurate time on the Switch enables the system log to record meaningful dates and times for
event entries. If the clock is not set, the Switch will only record the time from the factory default set at the last
bootup. When the SNTP client is enabled, the Switch periodically sends a request for a time update to a
configured time server. You can configure up to two time server IP addresses. The Switch will attempt to poll
each server in the sequence.
Set Time
Set the system time manually. When this option is selected, the local hardware clock is utilized.
Set the system time using Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) automatically. When this option is
selected, the time is synchronized to an SNTP server.
