Regarding the issue of Truenas system automatically modifying BIOS time, which has an impact on WOL, please fix it. Thank you!

Please fix this issue officially, it has caused serious trouble for me to use the WOL wake-up function! (Due to inconsistent BIOS times between other wake-up devices and the host, it is impossible to wake up). Whether modifying the BIOS time or the UTC time zone of the system does not solve the problem, it will automatically synchronize the time and modify the BIOS time.

There is nothing to fix, system time is always UTC on Unix-like systems. You'll need more industry momentum than a forum post to change that.

I have temporarily resolved it myself, follow the following steps:
sudo bash
timedatectl set-local-rtc 1
hwclock --localtime --systohc
reboot

Yeah, expect things to break when doing that. Do yourself a favor and don't make time more complicated than it already is.
