ENARSI Exam - Question 15

Question

Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is troubleshooting BGP on a device but discovers that the clock on the device does not correspond to the time stamp of the log entries.

Which action ensures consistency between the two times?

Examice · Accepted Answer

To ensure consistency between the device time and the time stamps of the log entries, configure the service timestamps log datetime localtime command in global configuration mode. This command ensures that the log entries use the device's local time for their timestamps, which aligns the log times with the system clock.

davdtech · Answer

I stick to D
There is an asterisks in front of the time meaning that the device is not in sync with an NTP

MWoods · Answer

The Time zone needs to be changed. default it UTC
Central European Time (CET)
C is correct

Malataw · Answer

By default, syslog and debug messages are stamped by UTC, regardless of the time zone that device configured. You should append localtime key word to  "service timestamp {log | debug} datetime msec" global command to change that behavior.

Jenia1 · Answer

The correct answer is C

Nhan · Answer

C and D are both correct answer for this scenario, i would like to go with D. NTP server provide much more accurate clock setting than local device clock.

C is correct for me too.

Jack1188 · Answer

c is correct answer.

Jack1188 · Answer

c is the correct answer.

Fmz · Answer

Yes, C is correct

RS_nw · Answer

The answer is correct. Show Clock output shows Asterisk (*) which is indicator that clock is not Authoritive.

C looks to be correct here

Hack4 · Answer

C  is  the   right  answer

xziomal9 · Answer

The correct answer is: C

Pbshah · Answer

Even we synchronize the clock but it may show different timezone so we should set the “localtime” keyword (which uses local time zone for timestamps) so that the time of logging messages is matched with our clock.

networkWiz · Answer

C is the correct answer

_PrettyStupid_ · Answer

I'm going with C
Reference: https://community.cisco.com/t5/networking-knowledge-base/router-log-timestamp-entries-are-different-from-the-system-clock/ta-p/3132258  and https://conetrix.com/blog/timestamps-on-logs-of-cisco-devices-do-not-match-actual-time-on-device

Koume · Answer

I vote C as the question is referring to the difference between log an the clock and this is fixed with service timestamp

Chiaretta · Answer

D is correct

Defilet · Answer

Should be C

tubirubs · Answer

The current timezone is CET, and the default timezone for logs is UTC

ZachTL11 · Answer

C - adding keyword 'localtime' is what will fix this.

Chris_Li · Answer

the answer is C obviously

yoyo_simon · Answer

C should be correct

error_909 · Answer

The correct answer is C

Nonono · Answer

C is correct

Nhan · Answer

D is the best answer, manually configure the clock is never can be as accurate as NTP server.

Alexloh · Answer

The answer is D

Nhan · Answer

Hey SET  thank you for the link, you are the man, C is correct answer. Again thank you buddy

Malasxd · Answer

It does not say the device timer is incorrect. It's says the device time and log time are different and you need to resolve it.

[Removed] · Answer

it´s C

bf10690 · Answer

C is the correct answer. It makes it so that logs use the local time. Syncing the time with an NTP wouldn't help because the question is about the time stamp on the log not matching the clock on the device.

The clock not being synchronized could be an issue, but it is not what the question asks us to fix. It just wants the time on the device to match the timestamp.

131dac4 · Answer

log timestamps are updated to reflect local time, or the time that the 'show clock' command is displaying.
