How to configure the NTP clock timezone command on a Cisco router

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the default time zone when configuring Network Time Protocol (NTP).

To change the time zone, issue this command:

clock timezone zone hours-offset [minutes-offset]

Here are explanations for each parameter:

zone

This is the name of the time zone to be displayed when standard time is in effect.

hours-offset

This is the hours difference from UTC.

minutes-offset

This is the (optional) minutes difference from UTC.

The system keeps the time internally in UTC and specifies a value for zone.

The system displays the time for that zone.
