Configuring an NTP Server
1. Edit file ntp.conf

bash> cp /etc/inet/ntp.server /etc/inet/ntp.conf
bash> vi /etc/inet/ntp.conf

Add server address for ntp server

server 1.id.pool.ntp.org
server 1.asia.pool.ntp.org
server 3.asia.pool.ntp.org
broadcast 224.0.1.1 ttl 4
 
enable auth monitor
driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift
statsdir /var/ntp/ntpstats/
filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable
filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable
filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable
 
keys /etc/inet/ntp.keys
trustedkey 0
requestkey 0
controlkey 0

Save your change configuration

2. Refresh daemon NTP

bash> touch /var/ntp/ntp.drift
bash> svcadm enable svc:/network/ntp

Configuring an NTP Client
1. Edit file ntp.conf

bash> cp /etc/inet/ntp.client /etc/inet/ntp.conf
bash> touch /var/ntp/ntp.drift
bash> vi /etc/inet/ntp.conf
    server 10.10.10.1 prefer # IP NTP Server  Primary
    server 10.10.10.2         # IP NTP Server Secondary
    driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift

2. Refresh daemon NTP

bash> svcadm enable svc:/network/ntp
bash> svcadm refresh svc:/network/ntp
bash> svcadm restart svc:/network/ntp

You can use "ntpq -p" to monitor ntpd's performance.
