The output information indicates that S3100-52P-1 is synchronized to H3C3, with the
clock stratum level of 3, one level lower than that of H3C3.

1.7.4 Configuring NTP Multicast Mode
I. Network requirements
The local clock of H3C3 is set to the NTP master clock, with a clock stratum level of 2.
H3C3 advertises multicast packets through Vlan-interface2.
S3100-52P-1 and S3100-52P-2 respectively listen to multicast packets through their
own Vlan-interface2.
Note:
This example assumes that H3C3 is a switch that supports the local clock being the
master clock.
