NTP Quick Steps
The following steps are designed to show the user the necessary commands to set up NTP on an
OmniSwitch:
1 Designate an NTP server for the switch using the ntp server command. The NTP server provides the
switch with its NTP time information. For example:
-> ntp server 1.2.5.6
2 Activate the client side of NTP on the switch using the ntp client command. For example:
-> ntp client enable
3 You can check the server status using the show ntp server status command, as shown:
-> show ntp server status
IP address = 1.2.5.6
Prefer = yes
Version = 4
Key = 0
Stratum = 2
Minpoll = 6
Maxpoll = 10
Delay = 0.016 seconds
Offset = -0.700 seconds
Dispersion = 0.017 seconds
4 You can check the list of servers associated with this client using the show ntp client server-list
command as shown:
-> show ntp client server-list
IP Address Ver Key St Delay Offset Disp
