Configuring an NTP Multicast Client
Do as follows on the router functioning as an NTP multicast client:
1.
Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2.
(Optional) Run:
ntp-service max-dynamic-sessions
number
The number of local sessions allowed to be set up dynamically is set.
3.
Run:
interface
interface-type
interface-number
The interface to receive multicast NTP packets is specified.
4.
Run:
ntp-service multicast-client
[
ip-address
]
The local router is set to be an NTP multicast client.
Step 2 is optional. By default, up to 100 NTP sessions can be set up dynamically.
After the configurations, the local router senses the multicast NTP packets sent from
the server and synchronizes the local clock.
Running the
ntp-service max-dynamic-sessions
command does not affect the
existence of NTP sessions. When the number of the sessions reaches or exceeds the
maximum, the new session cannot be set up further.
