Configuring a key-id as trusted (CLI)

Enter the following command to configure a key-id as trusted.

Syntax:

sntp authentication key-id <key-id> trusted

no sntp authentication key-id <key-id> trusted

Trusted keys are used during the authentication process. You can configure the switch with up to eight sets of key-id/key-value pairs. One specific set must selected for authentication; this is done by configuring the set as trusted.

The key-id itself must already be configured on the switch. To enable authentication, at least one key-id must be configured as trusted.

The no version of the command indicates the key is unreliable (not trusted).

Default: No key is trusted by default.
