S1# clock<ENTER>

Question

d. Set the clock using the clock set command. Proceed through the command one step at a time.

e. Based on the information requested by issuing the clock set ? command, enter a time of 3:00 p.m. by using the 24-hour format of 15:00:00. Check to see if more parameters are needed.

S1# clock set 15:00:00 ?

The output returns a request for more information:

f. Attempt to set the date to 01/31/2035 using the format requested. It may be necessary to request additional help using context-sensitive help to complete the process. When finished, issue the show clock command to display the clock setting. The resulting command output should display as:

S1# show clock

*15:0:4.869 UTC Tue Jan 31 2035

g. If you were not successful, try the following command to obtain the output above:

S1# clock set 15:00:00 31 Jan 2035

Reflection:

When i typed some incorrect command such as “clclock” , the terminal get stuck with “Translating "clclock"...domain server (255.255.255.255)”.

I tried to close the terminal and start a new one but it didn’t seem to work.

I tried to press control+C or control+d and it didn’t seems to work either

After some time it seems to time out and return to the # prompt
