Configuring NTP Symmetric Peer Mode
Network requirements
z The local clock of Device A is set as the NTP master clock, with the clock stratum level of 2.
z Device C (an S4500 Ethernet switch) uses Device A as the NTP server, and Device A works in
server mode automatically.
z The local clock of Device B is set as the NTP master clock, with the clock stratum level of 1. Set
Device C as the peer of Device B.
