Potential Lab Gotcha

Hi guys,
 
Was just doing a practice lab on various rtr mgmt tasks including configuring some simple logging.
 
When I was done, I compared my config to the solution config and discovered I had left off something - something I would have probably left off in the real lab had I not come across this in the practice lab.
 
What did I forget you wonder?
 
Here was the task:
 
Configure x.x.x.x as the logging server. Timestamp of all sent messages should include date, time, msec and local time-zone.
 
This took just a couple of commands and was pretty easy. But...
 
I forgot to set the clock (or NTP) on the router.
 
Somehow, I think those devious folks who design those labs would have given me no credit for this section had I made this same omission. And, when they graded my config's, they think to themselves, "GOTCHA, Hehehe"
