9.2 Date & Time
This module enables you to set the system time and login timeout interval of the AP.
9.2.1 System Time
Ensure that the system time of the AP is correct, so that logs can be recorded correctly and the reboot
schedule can be executed correctly.
Log in to the web UI of the AP, choose Tools > Date & Time > System Time.
The AP allows you to set the system time by synchronizing the time with the internet or manually setting the
time. By default, it is configured to synchronize the system time with the internet.
No matter which method you use to configure system time, when you log into the web UI of the AP, AP
will automatically synchronize the time of the current management host.
Synchronizing with Internet Time
The AP automatically synchronizes its system time with a time server of the internet. This enables the AP to
automatically correct its system time after being connected to the internet.
For details about how to connect the AP to the internet, refer to LAN Setup.
Procedure for configuring the AP to synchronize its system time with the internet:
Step 1 Choose Tools > Date & Time > System Time.
Step 2 Select Synchronize with Internet Time.
Step 3 Set Synchronization Interval to the interval at which the AP synchronizes its system time with a time
server of the internet. The default value 30 minutes is recommended.
Step 4 Set Time Zone to the GMT standard time zone for the area where the AP is currently located.
