To view whether NTP is configured on the interface, use the
show config
command in INTERFACE mode. If
ntp disable
is not listed in the
show config
command output, NTP is enabled. (The
show config
command displays only non-default configuration information.)
Configuring a Source IP Address for NTP
Packets
By default, the source address of NTP packets is the IP address of the interface used to reach the network.
You can configure one interface’s IP address include in all NTP packets.
To configure an IP address as the source address of NTP packets, use the following command.
• Configure a source IP address for NTP packets.
CONFIGURATION mode
ntp source
interface
Enter the following keywords and slot/port or number information:
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword
TenGigabitEthernet
then the slot/port[/
subport] information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword
fortyGigE
then the slot/port information.
• For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword
loopback
then a number from 0 to 16383.
• For a port channel interface, enter the keywords
port-channel
then a number.
• For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword
vlan
then a number from 1 to 4094.
To view the configuration, use the
show running-config ntp
command in EXEC privilege mode (refer to
Configuring NTP Authentication
).
Configuring NTP Authentication
NTP authentication and the corresponding trusted key provide a reliable means of exchanging NTP packets
with trusted time sources.
NTP authentication begins when the first NTP packet is created following the configuration of keys. NTP
authentication in Dell Networking OS uses the message digest 5 (MD5) algorithm and the key is embedded in
the synchronization packet that is sent to an NTP time source.
Dell Networking OS Behavior
: Dell Networking OS uses an encryption algorithm to store the authentication
key that is different from previous Dell Networking OS versions; Dell Networking OS uses data encryption
standard (DES) encryption to store the key in the startup-config when you enter the
ntp authentication-
key
command. Therefore, if your system boots with a startup-configuration from an Dell Networking OS
version in which you have configured
ntp authentication-key
, the system cannot correctly decrypt the
key and cannot authenticate the NTP packets. In this case, re-enter this command and save the running-
config to the startup-config.
To configure NTP authentication, use the following commands.
1
Enable NTP authentication.
