Configuring the master
To configure the Multi-Service IronWare as a Network Time Protocol (NTP) master clock to which
peers synchronize themselves when an external NTP source is not available, use the master
command. The master clock is disabled by default. To disable the master clock function, use the no
form of this command.
NOTE
This command is not effective, if the NTP is enabled in client-only mode.
Brocade(config-ntp)# master stratum 5
Syntax: [no] master [stratum number]
Stratum number is the number from 2 to 15. It indicates the NTP stratum number that the system
will claim.
Enable or disable NTP logging
To enable or disable Network Time Protocol (NTP) message logging, use the logging enable ntp
command. By default, the logging is enabled for NTP. To disable NTP logging, use the no form of
this command.
Brocade(config)# logging enable ntp
Syntax: [no] logging enable ntp
