I'm going to guess on question one. I'd say it would be the servers time, since the evaluation is going on on the server.
For the second question, no, you don't need 2. Ignore time wraps around.

Subject: [Xymon] alert IGNORE question
I have one client that has a maintentance window every night.
I have two questions related to the IGNORE alert option.
1. Is the time specified in the IGNORE the server time or the client time?
2. The time I would like to ignore wraps around midnight. Do I need two separate IGNORE statements for that? Below are the pertinent lines in alert.cfg, and an error being generated to /var/log/xymon/alert.log
HOST=* SERVICE=linkthreads COLOR=red
## ignore linkthreads on 10144 for this duration
IGNORE HOST=CCHWOOPNL TIME=2345:0245

Thanks,
