Parameters
keyid: Specifies an authentication key ID, in the range of 1 to 4294967295.
cipher: Sets a ciphertext key.
simple: Sets a plaintext key. This key will be saved in cipher text for secrecy.
value: Specifies the MD5 authentication key string. This argument is case sensitive. If simple is specified,
it is a string of 1 to 32 characters. If cipher is specified, it is a string of 1 to 73 characters. If neither cipher
nor simple is specified, you set a plaintext key string.
Description
Use ntp-service authentication-keyid to set the NTP authentication key.
Use undo ntp-service authentication-keyid to remove the set NTP authentication key.
By default, no NTP authentication key is set.
In a network where there is a high security demand, the NTP authentication feature should be enabled
for a system running NTP. This feature enhances the network security by means of the client-server key
authentication, which prohibits a client from synchronizing with a device that has failed authentication.
