Setting time on network elements using Simple Network Time
Protocol
The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) feature synchronizes the
Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) to an accuracy within 1 second. This
feature adheres to the IEEE RFC 2030 (MIB is the s5agent). With this
feature, the system can obtain the time from any RFC 2030-compliant
NTP/SNTP server.
ATTENTION
If you have trouble using this feature, try various NTP servers. Some NTP servers
may be overloaded or currently inoperable.
