Limiting the Number of Local Dynamic Sessions

Prerequisites

All basic NTP functions have been configured.

Context

In both unicast client/server mode and symmetric peer mode, connections are established using command lines. These connections are static sessions. Dynamic sessions are established in broadcast mode and multicast mode. Configured limits on the number of local dynamic sessions are enforced.

The ntp-service max-dynamic-sessions command does not affect existing NTP sessions. When the number of local dynamic NTP sessions exceeds the limit, new sessions cannot be established.

Procedure

Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
Run ntp-service max-dynamic-sessions number
The number of local dynamic sessions that can be established is configured.

By default, a maximum of 100 NTP dynamic sessions can be established.

Verifying the Configuration

Run the display current-configuration | include ntp command to view the number of local dynamic sessions that can be established.
