Here's an update: I connected to Dell chat support and they found the source of the problem--Management ACL's block SNTP traffic. You have to have a explicit permit rule in the priority list. Also, the DOS attack suppression still has to be disabled; this was not addressed in 2.2.0.3. Hopefully they'll get to that because I'd like to use it. I may try to zero in on which part of DOS suppression is causing the problem. B. Schultz
I've tried everything I can think of to get the time and date set on my 6248. I've tried using public, stratum 2 NTP servers; I've setup my own unicast NTP server that is a DC in a domain; I've tried turning on broadcasting with UDP relay; I've tried saving run to start and rebooting the system; I've got the latest firmware installed. Nothing works. Can anyone help? Here's my "show sntp configuration" Polling interval: 128 secondsMD5 Authentication keys:Authentication is not required for synchronization.Trusted keys:No trusted keys.Unicast clients: Enable Unicast servers:Server          Key             Polling---------       -----------     -----------192.168.9.9     Disabled        Enabled Any help would be appreciated.
