Network requirementsH3C3 sets the local clock to be NTP master clock, with the clock stratum of 2. Itadvertises multicast packets through VLAN interface 2.Configure S5600-1 and S5600-2 to listen to multicast packets through their VLANinterface 2.Note:This example assumes that H3C3 is a switch that supports the local clock being themaster clock.
