Enables NTP to send broadcast messages with or without a key to a VLAN (Virtual LAN).
| vlan-name | Specifies the name of a particular VLAN on which to enable or disable NTP. |
| keyid | Specifies the key ID as a value from 1 to 65534. |
An NTP broadcast server is enabled by default.
For the broadcast server function to work correctly, configure a VLAN to forward broadcast packets by using the enable ipforwarding broadcast vlan-name command. All broadcast clients will receive clock information from the broadcasted clock messages.
The following command enables an NTP broadcast server on the switch:
enable ntp vlan toSW3 broadcast-server key 100
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 12.7.
This command is available on the Summit X450-G2, X460-G2, X670-G2, X770, and ExtremeSwitching X440-G2, X590, X620, X690, X870 series switches.
