Additional NTP commands are described in the TimeProvider TL1 Reference Guide.

Activating NTP

You use the ACT-FEATURE command to enable the NTP feature on the TimeProvider. You should contact your Symmetricom Sales representative and order part number 920-58000-01 to obtain the key to activate the NTP feature.

ACT-FEATURE:[<tid>]:<fid>:[<ctag>]::<key>;

This command has a default access level of ADMIN.

Parameter	<value>	Description

<fid>	NTP	The feature to be enabled.

<key>	Up to 20 case-sensitive characters; must	Key to enable the feature
	be within quotes to be case-sensitive.

Sample Command

ACT-FEATURE::NTP:TS1000::”ABcdEFgh123456”;

This command enables the NTP feature within the TimeProvider, and uses an activation code provided by Symmetricom.

Editing NTP Peer Server Parameters

You use the ED-EQPT command to edit the NTP peer server parameters after the NTP function is activated. When you set the <func> value to ADD or DELETE, you must include the <keyid>, <minpoll>, <maxpoll> and <preferred> values.

ED-EQPT:[<tid>]:NTP:[<ctag>]::SERVER,<func>,<serverIP>, [<keyid>,<minpoll>,<maxpoll>,<preferred>];
