Setting the time zone on RB751g-2hnd running router os 5.19

RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hi all,

How do I set the time zone from the cli on a RB751g-2hnd which is running router os version 5.19? I am following the guide at
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Securing_New_RouterOs_Router

I navigated to /system clock
and then ran
set time-zone=+5.5
I get an error
expected end of command (line 1 column 5)

I then also did the following.
[admin@MikroTik] /system clock> print
time: 22:27:17
date: aug/12/2012
time-zone-name: manual
gmt-offset: +00:00
[admin@MikroTik] /system clock> set gmt-offset=+5.5
expected end of command (line 1 column 5)

What is the problem here? My time zone is IST which is 5.5 hours ahead of GMT.

It should be something like this. Use tab to autofill and make sure you are using the right commands.


/system clock set time-zone-name=America/New_York

Hi C. Brown,
No go. set time-zone-name=india and then double tab does not show me new delhi India. I have tried asia/india without success.
