HP Procurve Switches Setting Time Using SNTP
HP Procurve Switches Setting Time Using SNTP
I recently picked up a couple ProCurve 2910al-48G-PoE switches. Since it had been a while since is setup time on a switch I had to research a bit. Here are the settings I used.
First, you can view the switches current time, timezone, etc. with the show time command.
Next go into config mode (configure terminal) on the switchs CLI.
sntp unicastNow, when I run show time the switch displays the current local time!
sntp 30
sntp server priority 1 65.55.21.17
sntp server priority 2 64.250.177.145
timesync sntp
time timezone -300
time daylight-time-rule continental-us-and-canada
