Difference between Clock and date in F5

Guys,

 

Can you let me know the exact difference for clock and date in f5. When I check the logs from bash the log time it shows matches to the "date" output. When I check the logs from tmsh the log time matches to "date" output. Is there a way to change the clock timing?

  • Very confused about what you're asking here - all of those things are taken from the system clock which is controlled by NTP normally or if not then can be set using the date command.

     

  • AFAIK, the dates should match whether you are using the

    tmsh show sys clock
    command or the
    date
    /
    clock
    commands from bash

    The LTM logs should reflect the time zone too.

    Do you have a timezone configured?

    tmsh list sys ntp timezone

    The output should be something like this

    sys ntp {
        timezone US/Eastern
    }
