GS1900 Series - Why is the switch time not correct

In this article, we like to show you, what you can do if the time on your switch is not correct.

In general, the switch can be configured to get the time from an NTP server automatically, but this needs to be set up firstly. In order to set it up correctly, you need to login to the switch and go to 

Configuration > System > Time > SNTP Server

Here you can set up the NTP Server Address and the port (normally it is 123) 

After setting up the server, you need to enable the settings and check if you need to set up daylight saving:

Now you can check the dashboard if the settings the time is correct: 

Don't forget to save your settings:

Save switch settings

What can go wrong?

If the time is still not correct, check the IP/Gateway/DNS-settings on the switch. You may also check if the firewall blocks the traffic from the switch.
