Configuring NTP multicast mode Network requirements As shown in Figure 14, configure Device C as a reference source, with the stratum level 2. • Configure Device C to operate in multicast server mode and send multicast messages from VLAN-interface 2. • Configure Device A and Device D to operate in multicast client mode and receive multicast messages through VLAN-interface 3 and VLAN-interface 2 respectively.

Network requirements
As shown in
Figure 14
, configure Device C as a reference source, with the stratum level 2.
Configure Device C to operate in multicast server mode and send multicast messages from
VLAN-interface 2.
Configure Device A and Device D to operate in multicast client mode and receive multicast
messages through VLAN-interface 3 and VLAN-interface 2 respectively.
