Description
Using ntp-service multicast-client command, you can configure the NTP
multicast client mode. Using
undo ntp-service multicast-client command,
you can disable the NTP multicast client mode.
By default, the multicast client service is disabled. ip-address defaults to

Designate an interface on the local Ethernet Switch to receive NTP multicast
messages and operate in multicast client mode. The local Ethernet Switch listens
to the multicast from the server. When it receives the first multicast packet, it starts
a brief client/server mode to switch messages with a remote server for estimating
the network delay. Thereafter, the local Ethernet Switch enters multicast client
mode and continues listening to the multicast and synchronizes the local clock
according to the arrived multicast message.
Example
Configure to receive NTP multicast packet via Vlan-Interface1 and the multicast
group corresponding to these packets located at 224.0.1.1.
