2 Configuration on Switch D:
# Configure NTP authentication
<SwitchD> system-view
[SwitchD] ntp-service authentication enable
[SwitchD] ntp-service authentication-keyid 88 authentication-mode md5 123456
[SwitchD] ntp-service reliable authentication-keyid 88
# Configure Switch D to work in the NTP broadcast client mode
[SwitchD] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchD-Vlan-interface2] ntp-service broadcast-client
Now, Switch D can receive broadcast messages through VLAN-interface 2, and
Switch C can send broadcast messages through VLAN-interface 2. Upon receiving
a broadcast message from Switch C, Switch D synchronizes its clock to that of
Switch C.
