To manually set the system clock, use one of the formats of the clock set EXEC command.
clock set hh : mm : ss day month year

EXEC
| Release | Modification | 10.0 | This command was introduced. |

Generally, if the system is synchronized by a valid outside timing mechanism, such as an NTP or VINES clock source, or if you have a router with calendar capability, you do not need to set the system clock. Use this command if no other time sources are available. The time specified in this command is relative to the configured time zone.
The following example manually sets the system clock to 1:32 p.m. on July 23, 1997:
clock set 13:32:00 23 July 1997
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| calendar set | Sets the system calendar. |
| clock read-calendar | Manually reads the calendar into the system clock. |
| clock summer-time | Configures the system to automatically switch to summer time (daylight savings time). |
| clock timezone | Sets the time zone for display purposes. |
