IP=<prim_add>	IP address of the first NTP server to contact to obtain the time and optionally, the IP
	address of the second NTP server to contact if a valid time is not received from the first
,<sec_addr>
	server. At least a primary address is required if NTP is being enabled for the first time.
	Interval for sending a time request to the NTP server and then updating the clock.
	Valid values are 0-99 hours. A zero value indicates that the time should be requested
UPDATE=<hours>	and the clock updated when the CCM appliance reboots.
	Regardless of this parameter’s value, the clock is updated immediately when the
	NTP Enable command is issued.
	Default = 0 (update immediately and then only upon reboot)
DISABLE	Disables NTP on the appliance.

Example

The following command enables use of NTP on the CCM appliance. The time requests will first be made to the NTP server at IP address 192.168.50.200. If a valid time is not acquired from that server, the secondary NTP server at 192.168.50.220 will be contacted. The time will be updated immediately and then every two hours.

ntp enable ip=192.168.50.200,192.168.50.220 upd=2
