Network requirements
As shown in
, Switch C functions as the NTP server for multiple devices on different network
segments and synchronizes the time among multiple devices. Switch A and Switch B authenticate the
reference source.
•
Configure Switch C's local clock as a reference source, with the stratum level 3.
•
Configure Switch C to operate in broadcast server mode and send out broadcast messages from
VLAN-interface 2.
•
Switch A and Switch B operate in broadcast client mode and receive broadcast messages through
VLAN-interface 2.
•
Enable NTP authentication on Switch A, Switch B, and Switch C.
