Ntp Multicast Mode Configuration Example - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

# Switch A and Switch B get synchronized upon receiving a broadcast message from Switch C.
Display the NTP status of Switch A after clock synchronization.
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] display ntp-service status
Clock status: synchronized
Clock stratum: 3
System peer: 3.0.1.31
Local mode: bclient
Reference clock ID: 3.0.1.31
Leap indicator: 00
Clock jitter: 0.044281 s
Stability: 0.000 pps
Clock precision: 2^-10
Root delay: 0.00229 ms
Root dispersion: 4.12572 ms
Reference time: d0d289fe.ec43c720
The output shows that Switch A has been synchronized to Switch C, the clock stratum level of
Switch A is 3, and that of Switch C is 2.
# Display IPv4 NTP association information for Switch A.
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] display ntp-service sessions
********************************************************************************
[1245]3.0.1.31
Notes: 1 source(master),2 source(peer),3 selected,4 candidate,5 configured.
Total sessions : 1
The output shows that an association has been set up between Switch A and Switch C.

NTP multicast mode configuration example

Network requirements
As shown in
segments and synchronizes the time among multiple devices.
• Switch C's local clock is to be used as a reference source, with the stratum level 2.
Switch C operates in multicast server mode and sends out multicast messages from VLAN-interface
•
2.
Switch A and Switch D operate in multicast client mode and receive multicast messages through
•
VLAN-interface 3 and VLAN-interface 2 respectively.
