What is hpTimeSyncMethod?

Selects which time-sync protocol the switch uses: none(1) disables sync entirely, sntp(2) or timep(3) picks one exclusively, and timepOrSntp(4) lets the device fall back between them — set this before configuring SNTP servers, since it gates whether SNTP runs at all.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.8.2.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> HP-SNTPCLIENTCONFIGURATION-MIB::hpTimeSyncMethod

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.8.2.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> HP-SNTPCLIENTCONFIGURATION-MIB::hpTimeSyncMethod.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.14.11.1.8.2.1.1 i <value>
