Configuration example for NTP client/server mode with
authentication
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 15 , perform the following configurations to synchronize the time between Device B
and Device A and ensure network security.
• The local clock of Device A is to be configured as a reference source, with the stratum level 2.
• Device B operates in client mode and Device A is to be used as the NTP server of Device B, with
Device B as the client.
• NTP authentication is to be enabled on both Device A and Device B.

Configuration procedure
1. Set the IP address for each interface as shown in Figure 15 . (Details not shown.)
2. Configure Device B:
system-view
# Enable NTP authentication on Device B.
[DeviceB] ntp-service authentication enable
# Set an authentication key.
[DeviceB] ntp-service authentication-keyid 42 authentication-mode md5 aNiceKey
# Specify the key as a trusted key.
[DeviceB] ntp-service reliable authentication-keyid 42
# Specify Device A as the NTP server of Device B.
[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.
Perform the following configuration on Device A:
# Enable NTP authentication.
[DeviceA] ntp-service authentication enable
# Set an authentication key.
[DeviceA] ntp-service authentication-keyid 42 authentication-mode md5 aNiceKey
