Configuring NTP
The device does not have a hardware-supported clock and cannot function as an NTP primary clock to which
peers synchronize themselves when an external NTP source is not available. The device also has no hardware
support for a calendar. As a result, the ntp update-calendar and the ntp master commands in global
configuration mode are not available.
These following sections provide configuration information on NTP:
