Time Settings (Zenitel Connect Pro)
From Zenitel Wiki
Introduction
Cybersecurity requirements mandate that all devices connected to Zenitel Connect Pro are time‑synchronized with the server. For this reason, Zenitel Connect Pro functions as the NTP server for all connected devices.
Zenitel Connect Pro can itself synchronize time with an external NTP server. If no NTP server is available, the system time can be set manually.
Although a time zone can be configured, Zenitel Connect Pro internally uses UTC. All logs and all timestamps included in API responses are generated in UTC. The configured time zone is used only to present the correct local date and time on devices equipped with a display.
Zenitel Connect Pro also supports NTS. NTS stands for Network Time Security, and is a modern security extension to NTP.

Manual
If an NTP server is not available, select Set time using: Manual. Edit the date and time directly in the edit field, or use the date/time picker to set date and time. The time should be set as UTC and adapted to local time by setting the correct timezone.
