The configuration command is looking for some word (some variable name) which it will use as a literal when it displays the time.

Since you had used CST (Central Standard Time) for the timezone I thought it reasonable to use CDT (Central Daylight Time) for summertime. You do not have to use that and may use any word that you choose for this.
