Command Syntax
ntp peer { hostname | address } [key key-id] [prefer] [version number]
no ntp peer { hostname | address }
address IP address of the time server or peer.
hostname Name of the time server or peer.
key (Optional) Defines the authentication key.
key-id (Optional) Authentication key to use when sending packets to this peer (1 to
64000).
prefer (Optional) Makes this peer the preferred peer that provides synchronization.
version (Optional) Defines the Network Time Protocol (NTP) version number.
number (Optional) NTP version number (1 to 3).
Command Mode
Global configuration
Default
No peers are configured.
Usage
When a peer is configured, the default NTP version number is 3, no authentication key is used, and the
source IP address is taken from the outgoing interface.
Use this command to allow a device to synchronize with a peer, or vice versa. Using the prefer
keyword reduces switching between peers.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a switch to allow its software clock to be synchronized
with the clock of the peer (or vice versa) at IP address 192.168.22.33 using NTP version 2.
Switch(config)# ntp peer 192.168.22.33 version 2
