Hi,
Our Firepower 2130 is sending Syslogs with Timestamps in UTC Time Zone and I can't find way how to change it.
I configured in Platform settings/Time Syncronization that the FTD updates its Time from Management Center but when I do show ntp on FTD I get this output:
> show ntp NTP Server : 127.127.1.1 Status : Unknown Offset : 0.000 (milliseconds) Last Update : 99m (seconds) NTP Server : 127.0.0.2 Status : Being Used Offset : 0.278 (milliseconds) Last Update : 29 (seconds)
Shouldn't tere be the FMCs IP?
On FMC under User Preference the Time Zone is CET.
show time on FTD:
> show time UTC - Fri Apr 6 13:53:30 UTC 2018 Localtime - Fri Apr 06 09:53:31 EDT 2018
Is it possibe to change the UTC Timestamps in Syslog messages to another Time Zone?
Thanks in Advance!

Is your FMC a VM? If so, it is not recommended to use it as an NTP server for the sensors.
Firepower syslog messages will always have UTC timestamps. It's not an option to change that.

Hi Marvin,
Our FMC is an VM, so we will need to use another NTP Server. Thanks!

Any news on this topic?
on my FMC 7.0 syslog messages are sent to syslog server in UTC format... kind of confusing.

Cisco sees that as the "right" way to do it per the RFC so the behavior remains as-is.

Thank you Marvin for your reply! I googled a way to make an offset on a syslog server. will try this as a workaround.
