Configure NTP IPV6 Server and Client

Network Requirements

• Device1 is the NTP server and Device2 is the NTP client.
• Device1 and Device2 are interconnected via their interfaces VLAN2 and the route is reachable.
• The NTP server is the clock source and the client gets the clock from the server.

Configuration Steps

Step 1: Configure the IPv6 address of the interface. (Omitted)

Step 2: Configure the NTP server Device1.

#Enable NTP IPv6 of device1, configure the time zone as Beijing time zone, local clock as reference clock, and the number of clock layers as 3.

Step 3: Configure the NTP client Device2.

#Enable NTP IPv6 of Device2, and configure the time zone as Beijing time zone.

#Specify the NTP server Device1, and IPv6 address as 10:1::121.

Step 4: Check the result.

#Execute the show ntp status command on the client Device2, and view the clock synchronization status, indicating that the client and NTP server Device1 are synchronized and the clock layers is 4, larger than Device1.

#On the client Device2, execute the show clock command to view the device clock.
