configure ntp [server | peer] add [ip_address | host_name] {key keyid} {option [burst | initial-burst]} {{vr} vr_name}

Description

Configures an NTP server or peer.

ip_address	Specifies the IP address of the NTP server or peer.
host_name	Specifies the host name of the NTP server or peer.
keyid	Specifies the key ID as a value from 1 to 65534.
burst	Follows the same burst mechanism when an NTP server is reachable.
initial-burst	Allows the system to send six burst packets when an NTP server becomes unreachable (discovered but unreachable).
vr	Specifies VR.
vr_name	Specifies the VR name. If no VR name is specified, the current command context is used.

If no VR name is specified, the current command context is used.

The initial-burst option is useful when a fast time synchronization is required at the initial stage.

The following command adds an NTP server named “Missouri” with key 5 and an initial burst:

configure ntp server add Missouri key 5 initial-burst

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 12.7.

The vr keyword was added in ExtremeXOS 22.2.
