Time Zone Setting - UTC Offset
- Kelli Higdon
The IMG 2020 by default uses and displays the time using GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). This time can be modified using the Time Zone Setting pane. Time is configured as +/- GMT. Once the Time Zone pane is configured, all functions that use time will now use the adjusted time configured in this pane. To create the Time Zone object, right click on the Dialogic BDN object and select New Time Zone Setting.
When configuring a Radius Client, the Radius Client can be configured to display the local time and the offset from GMT (Legacy Format with Timezone). If the Radius Time Format field is set to Legacy Format with timezone then the local time and the offset from UTC time will be displayed in the Radius CDR attributes shown below.

The IMG 2020 does not support Daylight Savings Time (DST). The offset from UTC time will need to be changed twice a year to accommodate for Daylight Savings Time.Â

Field Descriptions
offset from UTC time
The offset from GMT is configured here. Select from the drop down menu to either add or subtract from GMT. For example, if the local time in Boston needed to be set then select UTC -4:00. This would subtract 4 hours from GMT and display the local Boston time. UTC offset is selected in +/- 30 minute increments.
