3) Configure S3600-2
# Enter system view.
<S3600-2> system-view
[S3600-2]
# Enter Vlan-interface2 view.
[S3600-2] interface Vlan-interface 2
[S3600-2-Vlan-interface2]
# Set S3600-2 to a broadcast client.
[S3600-2-Vlan-interface2] ntp-service broadcast-client
After the above configurations, S3600-1 and S3600-2 will listen to broadcast packets
through their own Vlan-interface2, and H3C3 will send broadcast packets through
Vlan-interface2. Because S3600-2 and H3C3 do not share the same network segment,
S3600-2 cannot receive broadcast packets from H3C3, while S3600-1 is synchronized
to H3C3 after receiving broadcast packets from H3C3.

Clock status: synchronized
Clock stratum: 3
Reference clock ID: 3.0.1.31
Nominal frequency: 60.0002 Hz
Actual frequency: 60.0002 Hz
Clock precision: 2^18
Clock offset: -9.1060 ms
Root delay: 15.84 ms
Root dispersion: 3.52 ms
Peer dispersion: 29.62 ms
Reference time: 07:15:14.403 UTC Apr 25 2006(C7F84B02.6735F3D7)
The output information indicates that S3600-1 is synchronized to H3C3, with the clock
stratum level of 3, one level lower than that of H3C3.
