Get from Time
Server
Select this radio button to have the ZyXEL Device get the time and date from the
time server you specified below.
Time Protocol
Select the time service protocol that your time server uses. Not all time servers
support all protocols, so you may have to check with your ISP/network
administrator or use trial and error to find a protocol that works.
The main difference between them is the format.
Daytime (RFC 867)
format is day/month/year/time zone of the server.
Time (RFC 868)
format displays a 4-byte integer giving the total number of
seconds since 1970/1/1 at 0:0:0.
The default,
NTP (RFC 1305)
,
is similar to Time (RFC 868).
Time Server
Address
Enter the IP address or URL (up to 20 extended ASCII characters in length) of
your time server. Check with your ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of
this information.
Time Zone Setup
Time Zone
Choose the time zone of your location. This will set the time difference between
your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Daylight Savings
Daylight saving is a period from late spring to early fall when many countries set
their clocks ahead of normal local time by one hour to give more daytime light in
the evening.
Select this option if you use Daylight Saving Time.

Start Date
Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time starts if you selected
Enable Daylight Saving
. The
o'clock
field uses the 24 hour format. Here are a
couple of examples:
Daylight Saving Time starts in most parts of the United States on the first
Sunday of April. Each time zone in the United States starts using Daylight Saving
Time at 2 A.M. local time. So in the United States you would select
First
,
Sunday
,
April
and type 2 in the
o'clock
field.
Daylight Saving Time starts in the European Union on the last Sunday of March.
All of the time zones in the European Union start using Daylight Saving Time at
the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would
select
Last
,
Sunday
,
March
. The time you type in the
o'clock
field depends on
your time zone. In Germany for instance, you would type 2 because Germany's
time zone is one hour ahead of GMT or UTC (GMT+1).
End Date
Configure the day and time when Daylight Saving Time ends if you selected
Enable Daylight Saving
. The
o'clock
field uses the 24 hour format. Here are a
couple of examples:

local time. So in the United States you would select
Last
,
Sunday
,

o'clock
field.
Daylight Saving Time ends in the European Union on the last Sunday of October.
All of the time zones in the European Union stop using Daylight Saving Time at
the same moment (1 A.M. GMT or UTC). So in the European Union you would
