NETGEAR 7000 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide Version 7.2
18-4 Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
v1.0, May 2008
Example #5: Setting Time Zone
The SNTP/NTP server is set to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) by default. The
following example shows how to set the time zone to Pacific Standard Time (PST) which
is 8 hours behind GMT/UTC.
Example #6: Setting Named SNTP Server
Netgear provides SNTP servers accessible by Netgear devices.
Because Netgear may change IP addresses assigned to its time servers, it is best to access a SNTP
server by DNS name instead of using a hard-coded IP address. The public time servers available
are time-a, time-b, and time-c.
To use this feature, follow the steps below:
Enable a DNS name server and access a time server with the following commands:
where “192.168.1.1” is the public network gateway IP address for your device.
This method of setting DNS name look-up can be used for any other applications that require a
public IP address, for example, a RADIUS server.
(Netgear switch)(config)#clock timezone PST -8
(Netgear switch) (config)#ip domain-lookup
(Netgear switch) (config)#ip name-server 192.168.1.1
(Netgear switch) (config)#sntp server time-a.netgear.com
