I never used date; but time:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-39599759-1">time month/day/year hr:min:sec</code></pre>
Also, it may make sense to use NTP:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-39599759-2">time sync sntp
sntp &lt;server&gt;
sntp unicast
sntp &lt;interval&gt;

Hi,<br />
<br />
I'm trying to set the time on my Procurve switch as don't think we are in the 90's still :) and i've done the command 
<pre><code id="code-10-28276977-1">time 8:55</code></pre>
 which works but if i want to enter the date i do 25/10/2013 it says invalid date.<br />
<br />
Any ideas what i could be doing wrong?<br />
<br />
thanks<br />

HP 2626 Procurve Switch Time

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
