Displaying the active NTP server

Information about the currently active NTP server can be displayed. When an NTP server has been configured, the server IP address is displayed. If an NTP server is not configured or the server is unreachable, the output displays LOCL (for local device time).

Only the local NTP server information is displayed.

NTP server status when an NTP server is not configured

When an NTP server is not configured, the device will work with local time and the NTP status will display as shown below:

device# show ntp status
Clock is unsynchronized, no reference clock.
 NTP server mode is enabled, NTP client mode is enabled
 NTP master mode is disabled
