Enhancements in Release F.02.02
New Time Synchronization Protocol Options
Syntax: timesync sntp Selects SNTP as the time synchronization method.
sntp unicast Configures the SNTP mode for Unicast operation.
sntp server <ip-addr> [version] Specifies the SNTP server. The default server version is
3.
no sntp server <ip-addr> Deletes the specified SNTP server.
Note
Deleting an SNTP server when only one is configured disables SNTP unicast operation.
For example, to select SNTP and configure it with unicast mode and an SNTP server at 10.28.227.141
with the default server version (3) and default poll interval (720 seconds):
HP2512(config)# timesync sntp Selects SNTP.
HP2512(config)# sntp unicast Activates SNTP in Unicast mode.
HP2512(config)# sntp server 10.28.227.141 Specifies the SNTP server and
accepts the current SNTP server
version (default: 3)
.
Figure 92. Example of Configuring SNTP for Unicast Operation
If the SNTP server you specify uses SNTP version 4 or later, use the sntp server command to specify
the correct version number. For example, suppose you learned that SNTP version 4 was in use on
the server you specified above (IP address 10.28.227.141). You would use the following commands
to delete the server IP address and then re-enter it with the correct version number for that server:
In this example, the Poll Interval and the Protocol
Version appear at their default settings.
Note: Protocol Version appears only when there is an
IP address configured for an SNTP server.
