Description:
I want to use RevPi Core A as NTP client to get the standard time from Internet, while RevPi Core A s also set as NTP server to provide the time for my factory.
Install NTP server
"sudo apt-get install ntp"
Configure NTP server
"sudo nano /etc/ntp.conf"
Important part need to be modified in the file.
"
pool http://0.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst #Standard time server from Internet
pool 1.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst
pool 2.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst
pool 3.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst
# If you want to provide time to your local subnet, change the next line.
# (Again, the address is an example only.)
##################################################
broadcast 192.168.20.255 #allowed local time client range, here is 192.168.20.1~192.168.20.254
##################################################
"
restart NTP server
"sudo service ntp restart"
Test
"ntpq -p"
If you have the similar feedback from the terminal, that means you are successful.
The IP address should be with *.
