Passthrough access to serial port via Telnet
Using this option, it is possible to connect an arbitrary device to the serial port and access
it (assuming it provides terminal support) via Telnet. Select the appropriate options for the
serial port and use the Telnet Console, or a standard Telnet client to connect to the
KVM-9000 .
6.5.6 Date And Time
Figure 6-27. Date and Time
This link refers to a page, where the internal real-time clock of the KVM-9000 can be set up
(see Figure 6-27). You have the possibility to adjust the clock manually, or to use a NTP
timeserver. Without a timeserver, your time setting will not be persistent, so you have to
adjust it again, after KVM-9000 loses power for more than a few minutes. To avoid this, you
can use a NTP timeserver, which sets up the internal clock automatically to the current UTC
time. Because NTP server time is always UTC, there is a setting that allows you to set up a
static offset to get your local time.
Warning
There is currently no way to adjust the daylight saving time automatically. So you
have to set up the UTC offset twice a year properly to the local rules of your country.
