Configuring NTP Broadcast Mode with Authentication
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 12 , Device C functions as the NTP server for multiple devices on different network
segments and synchronizes the time among multiple devices. More specifically:
• Device C’s local clock is to be used as a reference source, with the stratum level of 3.
• Device C works in broadcast server mode and sends out broadcast messages from GigabitEthernet
0/1.
• Device D works in broadcast client mode and receives broadcast client through GigabitEthernet
0/1.
• NTP authentication is enabled on both Device C and Device D.
