Configuring the local clock as a reference source
Follow these guidelines when you configure the local clock as a reference source:
• Make sure the local clock can provide the time accuracy required for the network. After you
configure the local clock as a reference source, the local clock is synchronized, and can operate as
a time server to synchronize other devices in the network. If the local clock is incorrect, timing errors
occur.
• Before you configure this feature, adjust the local system time to make sure it is accurate.
