TimeP: Viewing, Selecting, and Configuring
This section describes how to use the CLI to view, enable, and configure TimeP

Viewing the Current TimeP Configuration
This command lists both the time synchronization method (TimeP, SNTP, or

Syntax: show timep
For example, if you configure the switch with TimeP as the time synchroniza-

Figure 9-10. Example of TimeP Configuration When TimeP Is the Selected Time
Synchronization Method
If SNTP is the selected time synchronization method),
show timep still lists the
TimeP configuration even though it is not currently in use:
Even though, in this example, SNTP is the
current time synchronization method, the
switch maintains the TimeP
configuration.
