Modify Default Time Zone
The default local time zone on a router or a switching device is UTC (Coordinated Universal Time, formerly known as Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT).
To modify the local time zone, include the time-zone
statement at the
[edit system]
hierarchy level:
[edit system] time-zone (GMThour-offset | time-zone);
You can use the GMT hour-offset
option to set the time
zone relative to UTC (GMT) time. By default, hour-offset
is 0. You can configure this to be a value in the range from –14 to +12.
You can also specify time-zone
as a string such as PDT
(Pacific Daylight Time) or WET (Western European Time), or specify the continent and major
city.
Junos OS complies with the POSIX time-zone standard, which is counter-intuitive to the
way time zones are generally indicated relative to UTC. A time zone ahead of UTC (east of
the Greenwich meridian) is commonly indicated as GMT +n; for example,
the Central European Time (CET) zone is indicated as GMT +1. However, this is not true for
POSIX time zone designations. POSIX indicates CET as GMT-1. If you include the set
system time-zone GMT+1
statement for a router or a switch in the CET zone, your
device time will be set to one hour behind GMT, or two hours behind the actual CET time.
For this reason, you might find it easier to use the POSIX time-zone strings, which you
can list by entering set system time-zone ?
.
For the time zone change to take effect for all processes running on the router or switch, you must reboot the router or switch.
The following example shows how to change the current time zone to
America/New_York
:
[edit] user@host# set system time-zone America/New_York [edit] user@host# show system { time-zone America/New_York; }
Starting in Junos OS Release 15.1F6, for the routers with
the RE-MX-X6, RE-MX-X8, and RE-PTX-X8 Routing Engines, the date and time zones are
synchronized from the admin guest Junos OS to the host OS. Thus, the guest OS and the host
OS use the same time zone and there is no difference in the timestamps in system log files
of Junos OS and the host OS. This time zone and date synchronization changes the time zone
of the host from the default UTC to the configured time zone. However, for the time zone
change to take effect for all processes running on the router, reboot the router by using
the request vmhost reboot
command.
