Re: ntp

Indeed do NOT configure the clock-period, this is automatically generated.
Watch out when configuring a ntp peer. This session means a peering session
between 2 NTP 'servers' to make sure they can get each others time. If you
want to configure a NTP 'client' to get time from another entity, configure
NTP server <IP>.

Please also check CCO as it has a great explanation on how this works.
