Usage Information
After configuring the ntp authentication-key command, configure the ntp
trusted-key command to complete NTP authentication.
Dell Networking OS versions 8.2.1.0 and later use an encryption algorithm to store
the authentication key that is different from previous Dell Networking OS versions;
beginning in version 8.2.1.0, Dell Networking OS uses DES encryption to store the
key in the startup-config when you enter the ntp authentication-key
command. Therefore, if your system boots with a startup-configuration from an
Dell Networking OS versions prior to 8.2.1.0 in which you have configured ntp
authentication-key
, the system cannot correctly decrypt the key, and cannot
authenticate NTP packets. In this case you must re-enter this command and save
the running-config to the startup-config.
