Configuring NTP (CLI)
PTP 820G and PTP 820F supports Network Time Protocol (NTP). NTP distributes Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)
throughout the system, using a jitter buffer to neutralize the effects of variable latency.
To configure NTP, enter the following command in root view:
root> platform management ntp set admin <admin> ntp-version <ntp-version>
ntp-server-ip-address-1 <ntp-server-ip-address>
To display the current NTP configuration, enter the following command in root view:
root> platform management ntp show status
