One more thing is after restarting the Firewall clock settings are getting reset.same thing is happening for switches & Router also, but logs are showing timestamp in router & switch.

Router, Firewall, and Switch doesn't have a CMOS battery (like the one in your PC) to keep the time running in the event that the device is restarted or power down. To keep the time, you need an NTP server for your network equipment to sync their time.
