Syntax:
sntp server priority <1-3>
Specifies the order in which the configured servers are polled for getting the time. Value is between 1 and 3.
Syntax:
sntp <30-720>
Configures the amount of time between updates of the system clock via SNTP.
Default: 720 seconds
Enabling SNTP in Broadcast Mode
Because the switch provides an SNTP polling interval (default: 720 seconds), you need only these two commands
for minimal SNTP broadcast configuration:
Syntax:
timesync sntp
Selects SNTP as the time synchronization method.
Syntax:
sntp broadcast
Configures broadcast as the SNTP mode.
Example:
Suppose that time synchronization is in the factory-default configuration (TimeP is the currently selected time
synchronization method.) Complete the following:
Procedure
1.
View the current time synchronization.
2.
Select
SNTP
as the time synchronization mode.
3.
Enable
SNTP
for Broadcast mode.
4.
View the SNTP configuration again to verify the configuration.
