Enabling the SNTP Server on the
ProCurve Secure Router
The J06_03 release of the Secure Router OS also includes a Simple Network
Time Protocol (SNTP) server. A simplified version of the Network Time
Protocol (NTP), SNTP provides a client-server architecture for synchronizing
the clocks on network devices. As an SNTP server, the ProCurve Secure
Router can respond to clients' requests for the current time.
To enable the SNTP server on the ProCurve Secure Router, enter the following
command from the global configuration mode context:
Syntax: ip sntp server
The ProCurve Secure Router can then accept time requests from clients.
Configuring the ProCurve Secure Router as an SNTP
Client
The ProCurve Secure Router can also function as an SNTP client. You can
configure:
the host name of the SNTP server that the router should contact for the
current time
the version of SNTP to use—version 1, 2, or 3
To configure the host name or IP address of the SNTP server, enter:
Syntax: sntp server [<hostname>| <IP address> | version <version number>]
Include the <hostname> or <IP address> option to specify the SNTP server.
