CONFIGURATION
Usage Information
You can configure multiple time-serving hosts. From these time-serving hosts, the system chooses one NTP host to synchronize with. To determine which server to select, use the show ntp associations command. Dell EMC recommends limiting the number of hosts you configure, as many polls to the NTP hosts can impact network performance.

Supported on the MX9116n and MX5108n switches in Full Switch mode starting in release 10.4.0E(R3S). Also supported in SmartFabric mode starting in release 10.5.0.1
