From the Symmetrical Keys screen (Figure 3-30), the user may define the trusted symmetrical 
keys that must be entered on both the NetClock and any network client with which the NetClock 
is to communicate. The maximum number of Key-ID/Key String pairs is 15.  Only those keys for 
which the “Trusted” box has been checked will appear in the dropdown menus on the NTP 
References screen (Figure 3-28).
