set ntp

Enables or disables the NTP client on a DWS-1008 switch.

Syntax: set ntp {enable disable}

enable Enables the NTP client.

disable Disables the NTP client.

Defaults: The NTP client is disabled by default.

Access: Enabled.

Usage: If NTP is configured on a system whose current time differs from the NTP server time by more than 10 minutes, convergence of the switch time can take many NTP update intervals. D-link recommends that you set the time manually to the NTP server time before enabling NTP to avoid a significant delay in convergence.

Examples: The following command enables the NTP client:

DWS-1008# set ntp enable success: NTP Client enabled

set ntp server

Configures a DWS-1008 switch to use an NTP server.

Syntax: set ntp server ip-addr

ip-addrIP address of the NTP server, in dotted decimal notation.

Defaults: None.

Access: Enabled.

Usage; You can configure up to three NTP servers. MSS queries all the servers and selects the best response based on the method described in RFC 1305, Network Time Protocol (Version 3) Specification, Implementation and Analysis.

To use NTP, you also must enable the NTP client with the set ntp command.
