1.5.1 NTP Server
Supermicro switches can synchronize time with a NTP server.
Follow the below steps to configure NTP server parameters.
Step Command
Step 1 configure terminal
ntp server <ip_address> [key (1-65535)] [prefer]
Step 2
Step 3 end
show ntp
Step 4
Step 5 write startup-config
The "enable agent" command enables the agent. NTP servers can be deleted only when the
NTP status is disabled.
If the key is configured at a Supermicro switch that's acting as an NTP client, ensure the
same key is configured at the NTP server(s) as well.
The example below shows the commands used to configure an NTP server.
SMIS# configure terminal
SMIS(config)# ntp server 200.200.200.10 key 100 prefer
SMIS(config)# ntp server 100.100.100.1 key 500
