Setting the NTP Authentication Key
When you enable NTP MD5 authentication, you must create an authentication key
and authentication ID. These values must be the same for the server and each
client in order to perform authentication. The ED-EQPT command allows you to
add, delete, or modify the authentication key and key ID.
ED-EQPT:[<tid>]:NTP:[<ctag>]::KEYGEN,<func>,<keyID>[,<key>];
This command has a default access level of ADMIN.
Sample Command
ED-EQPT::NTP:TP1000::KEYGEN,ADD,998,ABC123;
This command generates the key in NTP timestamps sent by the TimeProvider.
