NTP Configuration Tasks
371
Table 281 describes how the above mentioned NTP modes are implemented on 
the 3Com Switch 4210 Family.
CAUTION:
When the Switch 4210 is in server mode or symmetric passive mode, you need 
not perform related configurations on this switch, but on the client or the 
symmetric-active peer.
The NTP server mode, NTP broadcast mode, or NTP multicast mode takes effect 
only after the local clock of the 3Com Switch 4210 has been synchronized.
When symmetric peer mode is configured on two Ethernet switches, to 
synchronize the clock of the two switches, make sure at least one switch’s clock 
has been synchronized.

NTP implementation mode 
Configuration on the Switch 4210
Server/client mode 
Configure the local Switch 4210 to work in the 
NTP client mode. In this mode, the remote 
server serves as the local time server, while the 
local switch serves as the client. 
Symmetric peer mode 
Configure the local Switch 4210 to work in NTP 
symmetric peer mode. In this mode, the remote 
server serves as the symmetric-passive peer of 
the Switch 4210, and the local switch serves as 
the symmetric-active peer. 
Broadcast mode 
Configure the local Switch 4210 to work in NTP 
broadcast server mode. In this mode, the local 
switch broadcasts NTP messages through the 
VLAN interface configured on the switch.
Configure the Switch 4210 to work in NTP 
broadcast client mode. In this mode, the local 
Switch 4210 receives broadcast NTP messages 
through the VLAN interface configured on the 
switch. 
Multicast mode 
Configure the local Switch 4210 to work in NTP 
multicast server mode. In this mode, the local 
switch sends multicast NTP messages through 
the VLAN interface configured on the switch.
Configure the local Switch 4210 to work in NTP 
multicast client mode. In this mode, the local 
switch receives multicast NTP messages 
through the VLAN interface configured on the 
switch.
