2) To synchronize Device B, you need to perform the following configurations on Device A.
# Enable the NTP authentication function.
system-view
[DeviceA] ntp-service authentication enable
# Configure an MD5 authentication key, with the key ID being 42 and the key being aNiceKey.
[DeviceA] ntp-service authentication-keyid 42 authentication-mode md5 aNiceKey
# Specify the key 42 as a trusted key.
[DeviceA] ntp-service reliable authentication-keyid 42
(After the above configurations, the clock of Device B can be synchronized to that of Device A.) View the
status of Device B after synchronization.
[DeviceB] display ntp-service status
Clock status: synchronized
Clock stratum: 3
Reference clock ID: 1.0.1.11
Nominal frequence: 100.0000 Hz
Actual frequence: 100.1000 Hz
Clock precision: 2^18
Clock offset: 0.66 ms

The output information indicates that the clock of Device B is synchronized to that of Device A, with a
clock stratum level of 3, one stratum level lower than that Device A.
