The SBC SWe on AWS uses 169.254.169.123 as the default NTP server IP address to ensure the SBC time is in sync with AWS.
For more information, refer to: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/keeping-time-with-amazon-time-sync-service/.
The SBC SWe supports enabling multiple NTP servers. The SBC SWe syncs with each respective server, based on the amount of time it takes for the NTP server to respond. The "NTPQ" peers list the configured NTP servers with the current role using the following details:
When the SBC AWS instance is created, the default NTP server is ntp serverAdmin 169.254.169.123
.
To synchronize the NTP server with the SBC SWe on AWS, execute the following commands:
