TimeP: Viewing, Selecting, and Configuring
Time Protocols
For example, to select TimeP and configure it for manual operation using a
TimeP server address of 10.28.227.141 and the default poll interval (720
minutes, assuming the TimeP poll interval is already set to the default):
HP4108(config)# timesync timepSelects TimeP.
HP4108(config)# ip timep manualActivates TimeP in Manual
10.28.227.141mode.
Figure 8-16. Example of Configuring Timep for Manual Operation
Changing the TimeP Poll Interval. This command lets you specify how
long the switch waits between time polling intervals. The default is 720
minutes and the range is 1 to 9999 minutes. (This parameter is separate from
the poll interval parameter used for SNTP operation.)
Syntax: ip timep dhcp interval <1 . . 9999>
ip timep manual interval <1 . . 9999>
For example, to change the poll interv al to 60 minutes:
HP4108(config)# ip timep interval 60
Disabling Time Synchronization Without Changing the TimeP
Configuration. The recommended method for disabling time synchroniza-
tion is to use the timesync command. This halts time synchronization without
changing your TimeP configuration.
Syntax: no timesync
For example, suppose TimeP is running as the switch’s time sy nchronization
protocol, with DHCP as the TimeP mode, and the factory-default polling
interval. You would halt time synchronization with this command:
HP4108(config)# no timesync
