Service Manual
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.
