Time Zone

To specify a local time zone for a managed device, create a time zone object and specify it in the device platform settings policy assigned to the device.

This device local time is used ONLY for applying time ranges in rules in policies that support time ranges, such as access control, prefilter, and VPN Group policies. If you do not assign a time zone to a device, UTC is used by default when applying time ranges in these policies. No other functionality in the system uses the time zone specified in a time zone object.

Time zone objects are supported only for threat defense devices.

Note	Time-based ACLs is supported in Snort 3 also from management center 7.0 onwards.
