Time Protocols
TimeP: Viewing, Selecting, and Configuring
Changing the TimeP Poll Interval. This command lets you specify how
long the switch waits between time polling intervals. The default is 720
minutes and the range is 1 to 9999 minutes. (This parameter is separate from
the poll interval parameter used for SNTP operation.)
Syntax:
ip timep < dhcp | manual > interval < 1 - 9999 >
For example, to change the poll interval to 60 minutes:
ProCurve(config)# ip timep interval 60
Disabling Time Synchronization Without Changing the TimeP
Configuration. The recommended method for disabling time synchroniza-
tion is to use the timesync command. This halts time synchronization without
changing your TimeP configuration.
Syntax:
no timesync
Disables time synchronization by changing the Time Sync
Mode configuration to Disabled.
For example, suppose TimeP is running as the switch’s time synchronization
protocol, with DHCP as the TimeP mode, and the factory-default polling
interval. You would halt time synchronization with this command:
ProCurve(config)# no timesync
If you then viewed the TimeP configuration, you would see the following:
Figure 9-18. Example of TimeP with Time Sychronization Disabled
Disabling the TimeP Mode. Disabling the TimeP mode means to configure
it as disabled. (Disabling TimeP prevents the switch from using it as the time
synchronization protocol, even if it is the selected Time Sync Method option.)
Syntax:
no ip timep
Disables TimeP by changing the TimeP mode configuration
to Disabled.
