Menu Interface Operation with Multiple SNTP Server
Addresses Configured
When you use the Menu interface to configure an SNTP server IP address, the
new address writes over the current primary address, if one is configured. If
there are multiple addresses configured, the switch re-orders the addresses
according to the criteria described under "Address Prioritization" on page
5-32. For example, suppose the switch already has the following three SNTP
server IP addresses configured.

If you use the Menu interface to add 10.28.227.160, the new prioritized list will
be:
New Address List Address Status
10.28.227.153 New Primary (The former primary, 10.28.227.141 was deleted when you used the menu to add
10.28.227.160.)
10.28.227.160 New Secondary
10.29.227.100 Same Tertiary (This address still has the highest decimal value.)

SNTP Messages in the Event Log

If an SNTP time change of more than three seconds occurs, the switch's event
log records the change. SNTP time changes of less than three seconds do not
appear in the Event Log.
