HAPTER ONFIGURATION
# Configure Switch C to work in the broadcast server mode and send broadcast
messages through VLAN-interface 2.
[SwitchC] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface2] ntp-service broadcast-server
1 Configuration on Switch D:
# Configure Switch D to work in the broadcast client mode and receive broadcast
messages on VLAN-interface 2.
<SwitchD> system-view
[SwitchD] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchD-Vlan-interface2] ntp-service broadcast-client
1 Configuration on Switch A:
# Configure Switch A to work in the broadcast client mode and receive broadcast
messages on VLAN-interface 3.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 3
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface3] ntp-service broadcast-client
Because Switch A and Switch C are on different subnets, Switch A cannot receive
the broadcast messages from Switch C Switch D gets synchronized upon receiving
a broadcast message from Switch C.
