Tools_Time
The Time Configuration option allows you to configure, update, and maintain the correct
time on the router's internal system clock. From this section you can set the time zone that
you are in and set the Time Server. Daylight saving can also be configured to automatically
adjust the time when needed.
Time Configuration
Current Router Time
Displays the time currently maintained by the router. If this is not correct, use
the following options to configure the time correctly.

Time Zone
Select your local time zone from pull down menu.
Enable Daylight Saving
Check this option if your location observes daylight saving time.
Daylight Saving Offset
Select the time offset, if your location observes daylight saving time.
DST Start and DST End
Select the starting and ending times for the change to and from daylight saving
time. For example, suppose for DST Start you select Month="Oct", Week="3rd",
Day="Sun" and Time="2am". This is the same as saying: "Daylight saving starts
on the third Sunday of October at 2:00 AM."
Automatic Time Configuration
Enable NTP Server
Select this option if you want to synchronize the router's clock to a Network
Time Server over the Internet. If you are using schedules or logs, this is the best
way to ensure that the schedules and logs are kept accurate.
NTP Server Used
Select a Network Time Server for synchronization. You can type in the address
of a time server or select one from the list. If you have trouble using one server,
select another.
Set the Date and Time Manually
If you do not have the NTP Server option in effect, you can either manually set the
time for your router here, or you can click the
Copy Your Computer’s Time
Settings
button to copy the time from the computer you are using. (Make sure that
computer's time is set correctly.)
If the router loses power for any reason, it cannot keep its clock running, and will
not have the correct time when it is started again. To maintain correct time for
schedules and logs, either you must enter the correct time after you restart the
router, or you must enable the NTP Server option.

Enable Logging to Syslog Server
Enable this option if you have a syslog server currently running on the LAN and wish
to send log messages to it.
Syslog Server IP Address
Enter the LAN IP address of the Syslog Server.

Enter your account for sending email.

Enter the password associated with the account.

Email Log When Full or on Schedule
On Log Full
Select this option if you want logs to be sent by email when the log is full.
On Schedule
Select this option if you want logs to be sent by email according to a schedule.
Schedule
If you selected the On Schedule option, select one of the defined schedule rules.
If you do not see the schedule you need in the list of schedules, go to the
Tools -> Schedules
screen and create a new schedule.
Normally email is sent at the start time defined for a schedule, and
the schedule end time is not used. However, rebooting the router
during the schedule period will cause additional emails to be sent.
