I can use clock time EST -5 to set my time for Eastern Standard time. So this weekend the time change from daylight saving to standard time. If I don't have summer time cfg'd on my router does it matter, is EST still -5?
Now from an exam persepctive, If I was to suddenly drop my RTP exam and decide to take my exam in Sunny California or treat myself to a trip to Brussels, what should the
timezone be set at?
Finally, I keep having this discussion on NTP and whether you only need timezone set on the master or through out the environment. From my testing if I leave time at UTC then do a clock set to lets say 13:29:00 24 Oct 2003, then it shows up as such when I show clock. Now if I set timezone the time ( sometimes even the date ) then jumps back the -5 etc... So I know I need to clock time EST -5 on my master then clock set to get the right time.
On the peers if timezone is not set, will the Master send timezone as well as date/time or must timezone be set on each router? I say no the master will not send and yes it must be set on each router participating. My testing shows this to be the case, so I now do a clock time in notepad, while doing my cfg of aliases and line settings, this then gets pasted to each router ( oh-oh should this be done on the switch as well? I've never seen a senario for this on a 3550 ?). My buddy says not required as the master will send, but I've never seen it happen.
Anyone have the definative answer???
