5.3.3 Defining a SNTP Neighbor Configuration

The switch's SNTP association can be either a neighboring peer (the switch synchronizes to another

Refer to the NTP Neighbor
necessary, modify the attributes of an existing peer or server configuration or create a new neighbor peer or

Displays the numeric IP address of the resource (peer or server) providing switch

SNTP support.
Displays whether the NTP resource is a Peer (another associated peer device
capable of SNTP support) or a Server (a dedicated SNTP server resource). This
designation is made when adding or editing an NTP neighbor.
Displays whether AutoKey Authentication or Symmetric Key Authentication is
