# Specify Device A as the NTP server of Device B, and associate the server with key 42.
[DeviceB] ntp-service unicast-server 1.0.1.11 authentication-keyid 42
Before Device B can synchronize its clock to that of Device A, enable NTP authentication for
Device A.
4.
Configure NTP authentication on Device A:
# Enable NTP authentication.
[DeviceA] ntp-service authentication enable
# Set an authentication key, and input the key in plain text.
[DeviceA] ntp-service authentication-keyid 42 authentication-mode md5 simple
aNiceKey
# Specify the key as a trusted key.
[DeviceA] ntp-service reliable authentication-keyid 42
5.
Verify the configuration:
# Display the NTP status of Device B after clock synchronization.
