Managing NTP servers

You can add NTP servers to the system configuration to enable the NTP

client on the Nortel SNAS to synchronize its clock. To compensate for

discrepancies, it is recommended that NTP have access to at least three

NTP servers.

To manage NTP servers used by the system, use the following command:

/cfg/sys/time/ntp

The NTP Servers menu appears.

The NTP Servers menu includes the following options:

/cfg/sys/time/ntp

configured for the system, by index number.
del <index number> Removes the specified NTP server from the
system configuration.
•index number is the identification number
automatically assigned to the server when
you added the server to the configuration.
To view the index numbers of all configured
NTP servers, use the list command.
add <IPaddr> Adds an NTP server to the system
configuration.
•IPaddr is the IP address of the NTP
server.
An index number is automatically assigned to
the server.
