The procedure for configuring NTP authentication on the server is the same as that
on the client. Besides, the client and the server must be configured with the same
authentication key.

CAUTION: If you have specified an interface in the ntp-service unicast-server or
ntp-service unicast-peer command, this interface will be used for sending NTP
messages.
A single device can have a maximum of 128 associations at the same time,
including static associations and dynamic associations. A static association refers
to an association that a user has manually created by using an NTP command,
while a dynamic association is a temporary association created by the system
during operation. A dynamic association will be removed if the system fails to
receive messages from it over a specific long time. In the server/client mode, for
example, when you carry out a command to synchronize the time to a server, the
system will create a static association, and the server will just respond passively
