Configuring NTP Server/Client Mode with Authentication
Network requirements
z The local clock of Device A is set as the NTP master clock, with a clock stratum level of 2.
z Device B is an S4200G Ethernet switch and uses Device A as the NTP server. Device B is set to
work in client mode, while Device A works in server mode automatically.
z The NTP authentication function is enabled on Device A and Device B.

Configuration procedure
1) Configure Device B.
# Enter system view.
<DeviceB> system-view
# Set Device A as the NTP server.
[DeviceB] ntp-service unicast-server 1.0.1.11
# Enable the NTP authentication function.
[DeviceB] ntp-service authentication enable
# Configure an MD5 authentication key, with the key ID being 42 and the key being aNiceKey.
[DeviceB] ntp-service authentication-keyid 42 authentication-mode md5 aNiceKey
# Specify the key 42 as a trusted key.
[DeviceB] ntp-service reliable authentication-keyid 42
# Associate the trusted key with the NTP server (Device A).
[DeviceB] ntp-service unicast-server 1.0.1.11 authentication-keyid 42
