Configuring SNTP
The commands in this example configure the switch to poll an SNTP server 
to synchronize the time. Additionally, the SNTP sessions between the client 
and server must be authenticated.
To configure the switch:
1
Configure the authentication information. The SNTP server must be 
configured with the same authentication key and ID.
console#configure
console(config)#sntp authentication-key 23456465 
md5 sntpkey
console(config)#sntp trusted-key 23456465
console(config)#sntp authenticate
2
Specify the IP address of the SNTP server to poll and include the 
authentication key. This command automatically enables polling and sets 
the priority to 1.
console(config)#sntp server 192.168.10.30 key 
23456465
console(config)#sntp unicast client enable
