Explanation

Configuring NTP in client mode follows a logical sequence: first, you must configure the authentication key pair and define it as trusted or untrusted, then associate the NTP server IP with that public key, then enable NTP client mode to begin synchronization, and finally enable NTP authentication to enforce secure time synchronization. This order ensures that authentication credentials are in place before the client attempts to connect and authenticate with the server. Skipping or reordering these steps can result in authentication failures or an unsecured NTP configuration.
