Command History
Usage Guidelines The storage router must provide accurate date and time information for log files and user interfaces. It
will use the services of the NTP server to keep the date and time synchronized with the rest of the
network.
If the NTP server is outside the storage router management subnet, use the ip route command to add an
appropriate gateway IP address to the routing table.
Examples The following example sets the IP address of the NTP server for the storage router to 10.1.60.86.
[SN5428-2A]# ntp peer 10.1.60.86
A.B.C.D The IP address of the NTP server with which the storage router
synchronizes date and time. A.B.C.D is the dotted quad notation of the IP
address.
server-name The name of the NTP server with which the storage router synchronizes
date and time. In order to specify a server name, the storage router must be
configured to use a DNS server using the ip name-server command.
