Field

Description

source

IP address of the clock source

reference

Reference clock ID of the clock source

1)        If the reference clock is the local clock, the value of this field is related to the value of the stra field:

l       When the value of the stra field is 0 or 1, this field will be “LOCL”;

l      When the stra field has another value, this filed will be the IP address of the local clock.

2)        If the reference clock is the clock of another device on the network, the value of this field will be the IP address of that device.

stra

Stratum level of the clock source

reach

Reachability count of the clock source. 0 indicates that the clock source in unreachable.

poll

Poll interval in seconds, namely, the maximum interval between successive NTP messages.

now

The length of time from when the last NTP message was received or when the local clock was last updated to the current time

The time is in second by default. If the time length is greater than 2048 seconds, it is displayed in minute; if greater than 300 minutes, in hour; if greater than 96 hours, in day.

offset

The offset of the system clock relative to the reference clock, in milliseconds

delay

the roundtrip delay from the local device to the clock source, in milliseconds

disper

The maximum error of the system clock relative to the reference source.

[12345]

1: Clock source selected by the system, namely, the current reference source, with a system clock stratum level less than or equal to 15

2: Stratum level of the clock source is less than or equal to 15.

3: This clock source has passed the clock selection process.

4: This clock source is a candidate clock source.

5: This clock source was created by a configuration command.

Total associations

Total number of associations

 

When a device is working in the NTP broadcast/multicast server mode, the display ntp-service sessions command executed on the device will not display the NTP session information corresponding to the broadcast/multicast server, but the sessions will be counted in the total number of associations.

Parameters

None

Description

Use the display ntp-service trace command view the brief information of each NTP server along the NTP server chain from the local device back to the primary reference source.

The display ntp-service trace command takes effect only if routes are available between the local device and all the devices on the NTP server chain; otherwise, this command will fail to display all the NTP servers on the NTP chain due to timeout.

Examples

# View the brief information of each NTP server from the local device back to the primary reference source.

<Sysname> display ntp-service trace

 server 127.0.0.1,stratum 2, offset -0.013500, synch distance 0.03154

 server 133.1.1.1,stratum 1, offset -0.506500, synch distance 0.03429

 refid LOCL

The information above shows an NTP server chain for the server 127.0.0.1: The server 127.0.0.1 is synchronized to the server 133.1.1.1, and the server 133.1.1.1 is synchronized to the local clock source.

ntp-service access

Syntax

ntp-service access { peer | query | server | synchronization } acl-number

undo ntp-service access { peer | query | server | synchronization }

View

System view

Default Level

2: System level

Parameters

peer: Specifies to permit full access.

query: Specifies to permit control query.

server: Specifies to permit server access and query.

synchronization: Specifies to permit server access only.

acl-number: Basic ACL number, in the range of 2000 to 2999

Description

Use the ntp-service access command to configure the NTP service access-control right to the local device.

Use the undo ntp-service access command to remove the configured NTP service access-control right to the local device.

By default, the local NTP service access-control right is set to peer.

From the highest NTP service access-control right to the lowest one are peer, server, synchronization, and query. When a device receives an NTP request, it will perform an access-control right match and will use the first matched right.

 

l          The ntp-service access command provides only a minimum degree of security protection. A more secure method is identity authentication.

l          Before specifying an ACL number in the ntp-service access command, make sure you have already created and configured this ACL.

 

Examples

# Configure devices on the subnet 10.10.0.0/16 to have the full access right to the local device.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] acl number 2001

[Sysname-acl-basic-2001] rule permit source 10.10.0.0 0.0.255.255

undo ntp-service authentication-keyid keyid

View

System view

Default Level

2: System level

Parameters

keyid: Authentication key ID, in the range of 1 to 4294967295.

authentication-mode md5 value: Specifies to use the MD5 algorithm for key authentication, where value represents authentication key and is a string of 1 to 32 characters.

Description

Use the ntp-service authentication-keyid command to set the NTP authentication key.

Use the undo ntp-service authentication-keyid command to remove the set NTP authentication key.

By default, no NTP authentication key is set.

 

l          Presently the system supports only the MD5 algorithm for key authentication.

l          You can set a maximum of 1,024 keys for each device.

l          If an NTP authentication key is specified as a trusted key, the key automatically changes to untrusted after you delete the key. In this case, you do not need to execute the undo ntp-service reliable authentication-keyid command.

 

Examples

# Set an MD5 authentication key, with the key ID of 10 and key value of BetterKey.

System view

Default Level

2: System level

Parameters

ip-address: IP address of the local clock, which is 127.127.1.u, where u is the NTP process ID, in the range of 0 to 3. If you do not specify ip-address, it defaults to 127.127.1.0.
