no ntp-server
Context

Description
This command configures the node to assume the role of an NTP server. Unless the server command
is used, this node will function as an NTP client only and will not distribute the time to downstream
network elements.
Default
no ntp-server
Parameters
key-id — If specified, requires client packets to be authenticated.
peer
Syntax
peer ip-address [key-id key-id] [version version] [prefer]
no peer ip-address
Context
config>system>time>ntp
Description
Configuration of an NTP peer configures symmetric active mode for the configured peer. Although
any system can be configured to peer with any other NTP node it is recommended to configure
authentication and to configure known time servers as their peers.
The no form of the command removes the configured peer.
Parameters
ip-address — Configure the IP address of the peer that requires a peering relationship to be set up.
key-id key-id — Successful authentication requires that both peers must have configured the same
version version — Specify the NTP version number that is generated by this node. This parameter
