Configuration on S5600 series switches
Configure the local S5600 Ethernet switch to work
in the NTP client mode. In this mode, the remote
server serves as the local time server, while the
local switch serves as the client.
Configure the local S5600 switch to work in NTP
symmetric peer mode. In this mode, the remote
server serves as the symmetric-passive peer of the
S5600 switch, and the local switch serves as the
symmetric-active peer.
