## Dark Mode

You can set dark mode or light mode for the user interface by selecting the moon
or sun icon in the toolbar.

## Time Zone

By default, the Aviatrix PaaS console uses the browser time zone (usually based
on the operating system time and time zone settings). However, all time zones
are supported.

You can modify the time zone used in the UI. If you do so, all timestamps
visible in the UI are rendered for the selected time zone. The timestamps in
notification alerts (sent via email and webhook) use UTC regardless of the time
zone configured in the console.

If the UI time zone is set to something different from your browser time zone,
then the time zone abbreviation displays in the toolbar.

### Configure the Time Zone

To configure a different time zone in the Aviatrix PaaS console, do the
following:

1. Click the user icon in the toolbar.
2. To toggle between Local and UTC time zones, click the world icon.
3. To select a different time zone, click either *Local* or *UTC* under the
   world icon.
4. Click in the time zone field, select from the list, and then click *Save*.
   The abbreviation for the selected time zone and world icon display in the
   toolbar (such as GMT, AWST, +07, and so forth).
5. Click the time zone abbreviation to see your local time, the UTC time, and
   the time for the time zone you selected. On the Current Time pane is also an
   option to change the time zone. \[.text-left]
