NOTE:
To change from one TimeP server to another, you must use the no ip timep command to disable
TimeP mode, the reconfigure TimeP in manual mode with the new server IP address.
Example:
To select TimeP and configure it for manual operation using a TimeP server address of 10.28.227.141 and the
default poll interval (720 minutes, assuming the TimeP poll interval is already set to the default):
switch(config)# timesync time
Selects TimeP.
switch(config)# ip timep manual 10.28.227.141
Activates TimeP in Manual mode.
Configuring TimeP for manual operation
switch(config)# timesync timep
switch(config)# ip timep manual 10.28.227.141
switch(config)# show timep
Timep Configuration
Time Sync Mode: Timep
TimeP Mode : Manual Server Address : 10.28.227.141
Poll Interval (min) : 720
Changing from one TimeP server to another (CLI)
Procedure
1. Use the no ip timep command to disable TimeP mode.
2. Reconfigure TimeP in Manual mode with the new server IP address.
Changing the TimeP poll interval (CLI)
Syntax:
ip timep {< dhcp | manual >} interval <1-9999>
Specifies how long the switch waits between time polling intervals. The default is 720 minutes and the range is 1
to 9999 minutes. (This parameter is separate from the poll interval parameter used for SNTP operation.)
Example:
To change the poll interval to 60 minutes:
switch(config)# ip timep interval 60
Disabling time synchronization without changing the TimeP configuration (CLI)
Syntax:
no timesync
Disables time synchronization by changing the Time Sync Mode configuration to Disabled. This halts time
synchronization without changing your TimeP configuration. The recommended method for disabling time
synchronization is to use the timesync command.
