Field Description
“Clock is...” States whether or not the switch clock is synchronized, which NTP stratum the system is
assigned and the IP address of the NTP peer.
“frequency is...” Displays the frequency (in ppm), stability (in ppm) and precision (in Hertz) of the clock in
this system.
“reference time
is...”
Displays the reference time stamp.
“clock offset is...” Displays the system offset to the synchronized peer and the time delay on the path to the
NTP root clock.
“root dispersion
is...”
Displays the root and path dispersion.
“peer mode is...” State what NTP mode the switch is. This should be Client mode.
