Command Usage
• The time acquired from time servers is used to record accurate dates and times for log events.
Without SNTP, the switch only records the time starting from the factory default set at the last
bootup (i.e., 00:00:00, Jan. 1, 2001).
• This command enables client time requests to time servers specified via the sntp server
command. It issues time synchronization requests based on the interval set via the sntp poll
command.
Example
Console(config)#sntp server 10.1.0.19
