Configuring an NTP Peer on a C-series Controller (SRC CLI)

Use the following configuration statements to configure NTP on a C-series Controller to operate in symmetric active mode:



edit system ntp peer address {
version version;
prefer;
}

To configure NTP to operate in symmetric active mode:

From configuration mode, access the configuration statement that configures an NTP peer, and specify the IP address or hostname of an NTP peer.[edit system ntp] user@host# edit peer address
For example, to specify an NTP peer that has an IP address of 192.0.2.40:
[edit system ntp] user@host# edit peer 192.0.2.40 [edit system ntp peer 192.0.2.40] user@host#
(Optional) Specify the version of NTP to be used for outgoing packets.[edit system ntp server address ] user@host# set version version
(Optional) If you configure more than one peer, specify whether this server is to be contacted first for synchronization.[edit system ntp server address ] user@host# set prefer
