Uploading the NTP Group Key (ntp -d groupkey)

Usage Guidelines
Before running this command, use a file transfer tool that supports SFTP, for example WinSCP, to transfer the key file to the specified directory (for example /tmp) of the iBMC file system.
- Only the key files generated by using the SHA256 algorithm can be uploaded.
- For security purposes, periodically update the key.

# Upload the NTP group key to the iBMC.
iBMC:/->ipmcset -t ntp -d groupkey -v /tmp/ntp.keys
