Server

The server command is used when the node should operate in client mode with the NTP server specified in the address field. Use the no form of this command to remove the server with the specified address from the configuration. Up to five NTP servers can be configured.

Use the following CLI syntax to configure the node to operate in client mode.

config>system>time>ntp
        server {ip-address |ptp}[key-id key-id] [version version] [prefer]

Example: Command usage

The following example shows the command usage to configure the node to operate in client mode.

 config>system>time>ntp# 
	config>system>time>ntp# server 192.168.1.1 key-id 1
	config>system>time>ntp# no shutdown
