Description

The article explains the information where boot-server option is deprecated starting in Junos OS Release 20.4R1

 

Symptoms

From 20.4R1 Junos does not need to have "boot-server" config because Junos can adjust its system clock without "boot-server" config.

The main role of "boot-server" config was adjusting/synchronizing time regardless of time difference.

 

Solution

You can delete "boot-server" config because it will not affect NTP when removed. 

[edit system ntp]
boot-server (address | hostname); 

User-re0 > Edit 
User-re0 # delete system ntp boot server (address | hostname)

Note: The boot-server option is deprecated starting in Junos OS Release 20.4R1.
