Date and Time
The time settings on a device affect events such as the setup of virtual private
network (VPN) tunnels. The easiest way to set the date and time on the device is to
use the WebUI to synchronize the device clock with the clock on your workstation.
To configure the date and time on the device, use the WebUI or CLI as follows:
WebUI
1. Configuration > Date/Time: Click the Sync Clock with Client button.
A pop-up message prompts you to specify if you have enabled the daylight
saving time option on your workstation clock.
2. Click Yes to synchronize the device clock and adjust it according to
daylight saving time, or click No to synchronize the device clock without
adjusting for daylight saving time.
You can also use the CLI set clock command in a Telnet or console session to
manually enter the date and time for the device.
Default Route
The default route is a static route used to direct packets addressed to networks that
are not explicitly listed in the routing table. If a packet arrives at the device with an
address for which the device does not have routing information, the device sends
the packet to the destination specified by the default route. To configure the default
route on the device, use the WebUI or CLI as follows:
WebUI
Network > Routing > Destination > New (trust-vr): Enter the following, then
click OK:
Network Address/Netmask: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
Gateway: (select)
Interface: ethernet0/2 (select)
Gateway IP Address: ip_addr
CLI
set route 0.0.0.0/0 interface ethernet0/2 gateway ip_addr
