Chapter 6 System configuration using the Console Interface

320985-A Rev 01

 

Using SNTP

The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) feature synchronizes the Universal 
Coordinated Time (UTC) to an accuracy within 1 second. This feature adheres to 
the IEEE RFC 2030 (MIB is the s5agent). With this feature, the system can obtain 
the time from any RFC 2030-compliant NTP/SNTP server. 

The system attempts to connect to the NTP server at least three times, with five 
minutes duration between each retry. If the connection fails after three attempts, 
the system waits for the next synchronization time (the default is 24 hours) and 
begins the process again.

SNTP provides a real-time timestamp for the software, shown as Greenwich 
Mean Time (GMT).

If SNTP is enabled (the default value is disabled), the system synchronizes with 
the configured NTP server at boot-up and at user-configurable periods thereafter 
(the default sync interval is 24 hours). The first synchronization is not performed 
until network connectivity is established.

SNTP supports primary and secondary NTP servers. The system tries the 
secondary NTP server only if the primary NTP server is unresponsive.

Configuring with CLI

You can use the CLI to configure the SNTP feature, ensuring that you complete 
the following steps:

1

Set the primary and secondary NTP server.

2

Enable SNTP.

3

Display the UTC time.

4

Optionally, to ensure the synchronization happens immediately, force a 
synchronization.

Note: 

If you have trouble using this feature, try other NTP servers. Some 

NTP servers may be overloaded or currently inoperable.
