IPv6 Management Features

SNTP and Timep

For example, to configure link-local and global unicast SNTP server addresses
of:

fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0 (on VLAN 10, configured on the switch)

2001:db8::215:60ff:fe79:8980

as the priority “1” and “2” SNTP servers, respectively, using version 7, you
would enter these commands at the global config level, as shown below.

ProCurve(config)# sntp server priority 1

fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0%vlan10 7

ProCurve(config)# sntp server priority 2

2001:db8::215:60ff:fe79:8980 7

N o t e

In the preceding example, using a link-local address requires that you specify
the local scope for the address; VLAN 10 in this case. This is always indicated
by

%vlan followed immediately (without spaces) by the VLAN identifier.

Syntax:. show sntp

Displays the current SNTP configuration, including the
following:

Time Sync Mode: Indicates whether timesync is disabled or set
to either SNTP or Timep. (Default:

timep)

SNTP Mode: Indicates whether SNTP uses the broadcast or
unicast method of contacting a time server. The broadcast
option does not require you to configure a time server address.
The unicast option does require configuration of a time server
address.

Poll Interval: Indicates the interval between consecutive time
requests to an SNTP server.

Priority: Indicates the configured priority for the corresponding
SNTP server address.
