IPv6 Management Features
SNTP and Timep
For example, to configure link-local and global unicast SNTP server addresses
of:
■ fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0 (on VLAN 10, configured on the switch)
■
2001:db8::215:60ff:fe79:8980
as the priority “1” and “2” SNTP servers, respectively, using version 7, you
would enter these commands at the global config level, as shown below.
Switch(config)# sntp server priority 1
fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0%vlan10 7
Switch(config)# sntp server priority 2
2001:db8::215:60ff:fe79:8980 7
N o t e
In the preceding example, using a link-local address requires that you specify
the local scope for the address; VLAN 10 in this case. This is always indicated
by
%vlan followed immediately (without spaces) by the VLAN identifier.

following:
Time Sync Mode:

The unicast option does require configuration of a time server
address.

Indicates the interval between consecutive time
requests to an SNTP server.
Priority: Indicates the configured priority for the corresponding
SNTP server address.
