1.5.3 NTP Authentication

Supermicro switches support NTP authentication by the NTP server. The authentication data is
encrypted by an MD5 algorithm. The NTP authentication key can be configured in the switch and this
must be matched with the NTP authentication key in the NTP server. The authentication key is an NTP
key number and text pair.
Step Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2 ntp key <key_number (1- 65535)><key_text>
Step 3 end
Step 4 show ntp
Step 5 write startup-config
The "no ntp key" command deletes the NTP authentication key.
The example below shows the commands used to configure the NTP.
SMIS(config)# ntp key 200 For-server1
SMIS(config)# show ntp
[NTP] ntp is enabled
