Adding addresses

You can configure one SNTP server address using either the Menu interface or the CLI. To configure

a second and third address, you must use the CLI. To configure these remaining two addresses,

you would do the following:

Example

Example 9 Creating additional SNTP server addresses with the CLI

(HP_Switch_name#) sntp server 2001:db8::215:60ff:fe79:8980

(HP_Switch_name#) sntp server 10.255.5.24

NOTE: If there are already three SNTP server addresses configured on the switch, and you want

to use the CLI to replace one of the existing addresses with a new one, you must delete the unwanted

address before you configure the new one.

Deleting addresses

Syntax

no sntp server priority 1-3 <ip-addr>

Deletes a server address. If there are multiple addresses and you delete one of them, the switch

re-orders the address priority.

Example 10 Converting a secondary address to primary

To delete the primary address and automatically convert the secondary address to primary:

(HP_Switch_name#) no sntp server 10.28.227.141
