Configure NTP Server Settings

Using SNMP, you can change the following NTP server-related settings in the unitConfigurationTable:

1. Enable or disable synchronization of the device date and time with NTP servers (synchronizeWithNTPServer).
2. Enable or disable the use of DHCP‑assigned NTP servers if synchronization with NTP servers is enabled (useDHCPProvidedNTPServer).
3. Manually assign the primary NTP server if the use of DHCP‑assigned NTP servers is disabled (primaryNTPServerAddressType and primaryNTPServerAddress).
4. Manually assign the secondary NTP server (optional) (secondaryNTPServerAddressType and secondaryNTPServerAddress).

   Note -  When using the SNMP SET command to specify or change NTP servers, it is required that you set both the NTP server address type and address in the command line simultaneously.

   For example, the following SNMP command changes the primary NTP server address from IPv4 (192.168.84.84) to host name:

   snmpset -v2c -c private 192.168.84.84 firstNTPServerAddressType = dns firstNTPServerAddress = "angu.pep.com"

   Caution  -  When enabling previously-disabled thresholds through SNMP, ensure you set a correct value for all thresholds that are supposed to be enabled before actually enabling them. Otherwise, you might get an error message.
