Configure SNTP client mode

Select SNTP Syncroniztion mode(s): This action enables/disables the STNP client in
a particular time synchronous access mode. There are three modes to choose from,
and
each mode has enable and disable options:
a. Unicast mode:
• Enable - the mode uses a unicast server and the IP address or hostname in the
SNTP server association list is used to synchronize the client time with the server.
The SNTP client attempts to contact the specific server in the association in order
to receive a timestamp when the sntpclient sync command is issued.
• Disable - the unicast server is removed from the association list.
b. Broadcast mode:
• Enable - allows the SNTP client to accept time synchronization broadcast packets
from an SNTP server located on the network, and updated the local system time
accordingly.
• Disable - stops synchronization via broadcast mode
c. Anycast Mode:
• Enable - the SNTP client sends time synchronized broadcast packets to the
network and subsequently expects a reply from a valid timeserver. The client then
uses the first reply it receives to establish a link for future sync operations in unicast
mode.
This server will then be added to the server association list. The client ignores any
later replies from servers after the first one is received.
