Item Description
Clock status
This field displays the synchronization status of the system clock.
Source Interface
Set the source interface for an NTP message.
If you do not want the IP address of a certain interface on the local device
to become the destination address of response messages, you can specify
the source interface for NTP messages, so that the source IP address in the
NTP messages is the primary IP address of this interface. If the specified
source interface is down, the source IP address is the primary IP address of
the egress interface.
Key 1
Set NTP authentication key.
The NTP authentication feature should be enabled for a system running
NTP in a network where there is a high security demand. This feature
enhances the network security by means of client-server key
authentication, which prohibits a client from synchronizing with a device
that has failed authentication.
You can set two authentication keys, each of which is composed of a key
ID and key string.
•
ID is the ID of a key.
•
Key string is a character string for MD5 authentication key.
