An engineer must adjust the time on a Cisco ACI fabric. The implementation must use a single external time server and the APIC management interfaces for the communication. Which action accomplishes this goal?

Question

Accepted Answer

C. Set the NTP provider in default Date and Time policy. To use an external time server, Cisco ACI requires configuring an NTP provider, which is the external server's IP address, within the default Date and Time policy. This policy is applied to the APIC cluster and fabric nodes, enabling them to synchronize their clocks using the APIC management interfaces.

Answer

A. Enable the Date and Time offset state in the system settings. Enabling a Date and Time offset is for local time adjustments, not for synchronizing with an external NTP server.

Answer

B. Set the NTP provider minimum polling interval to 1. Setting the polling interval is a specific parameter of an existing NTP provider, not the action to establish the provider itself.

Answer

D. Create a contract in the management tenant to allow UDP port 123. Contracts are used for communication between EPGs within tenants, not for APIC management plane services like NTP communication with external servers.
