Parameter description
It specifies the current system time of the ONT. You can change it manually.
It specifies the time zone where the ONT locates.
Enable Daylight
Saving Time
Daylight Saving Time (DST) is the practice of advancing clocks during warmer months so
that darkness falls later each day according to the clock.
With it is enabled, the ONT sets the time forward by one hour in the spring ("spring
forward") and set the time back by one hour in autumn ("fall back") to return to standard
time. In other words, there is one 23-hour day in late winter or early spring and one 25-
hour day in the autumn.
Enable SNTP
Client Update
It specifies whether to enable automatic update of system time through synchronization
with SNTP server.
The SNTP is a time synchronization protocol of the TCP/IP protocol family. It is based on
the connectionless User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and can be used on all supporting
devices to synchronize system time in IP networks.
It specifies the interface through which the ONT updates its system time with the SNTP
server.
You can choose a preset SNTP server, or manually set the IP address for updating system
time.
