Real-Time Clock Backup
The device provides a Real-time Clock (RTC) backup feature. The device saves the system time at regular
intervals to a backup file in persistent storage.
If the system time is not the latest when the device re-boots, the device uses the time from the backup file to
update the RTC. Wi-Fi authentication certificates are validated using the restored time. Using the correct time
from the Wi-Fi network, the system time and the RTC are updated.
