The broadcastclient command enables listening to NTP broadcast messages on the specified interface. Interfaces in the base routing context or the management interface may be specified. Due the relative ease of spoofing of broadcast messages, it is strongly recommended to use authentication with broadcast mode. The messages must have a destination address of the NTP Broadcast address.
config>system>time>ntp
— broadcastclient [router router-name] {interface ip-int-name} [authenticate]
config>system>time>ntp#
— config>system>time>ntp# broadcastclient interface int11
— config>system>time>ntp# no shutdown
The following example shows NTP enabled with the broadcastclient parameter enabled.
