Krishna,
My question was apart from yours, I was trying to sync one of the gateways 
(Site-B) with its internal clock just for testing to see if it'll provide the 
same result as when synched with external source. Dan advised that this can be 
done with using the ntp master command on Site-B GW, just configure the 2 clock 
commands.

dan & Ramy,
the question here is hq router is the one that provides the time to ucm..and 
therefore without putting the command ntp source how can cucm can know it has 
to synchronize its clock with hq router...i m sure that when you providing time 
from hq router to cucm phones, then you must use ntp master as well ntp source 
to which the time on the hq router binds and apparently the cucm can reference 
the clock from hq router as well...
thank youkrishna

If it is UCM, then the time on the router is only relevant to the phones when 
in SRST. When registered to the UCM, the phones are getting their time 
information from the UCM, specifically the date time group configured on the 
device pool that contains
 those phones.

I think in your scenario you're assuming that this is a CME site. Actually, 
this site is a UCM remote site not CME. So, in this case do you think the 2 
clock commands are sufficient?

You don't need the ntp master or the ntp source commands. Just the two clock 
commands that you have, the time-zone command under telephony service, and make 
sure you set the type command under the ephone (eg type 7965). Do a create cnf 
under telephony
 service and restart or reset the ephones.

Dear All,



Regarding the same subject, I tried to sync a gateway with its internal clock 
using ntp master only. The clock was synched but not as what's displayed on the 
IP phones at that site. I realized also that the stratum was higher than 10.



My configuration was as follows:



clock timezone EST -5
clock summer-time EDT recurring
ntp master



I don't know if there's a configuration missing here or not.



Regard,
Ramy

 take the chance of losing points because they think the command should be 
there. Just cause it works doesn't mean you will get the points.

 synchronize with the HQ router just fine. Ntp master should really only be 
used when there is no external clock.

 about how to drop certain traffic if a queue were 80% full. My suggestion to 
you would be to review Vik Mahlis QOS blog on the IPEXPERT website. Go to
blog.ipexpert.com and select the voice blog on the left. Then look for the QOS 
section. I think this will clear up most of your questions and get you on your 
way.

 is configured to sync to an external time source then if NTP master is used 
the stratum that is configured must be accounted for. At some point down the 
chain of NTP syncs the stratum will eventually reach a number high enough that 
the device on the end of
 the chain will prefer its internal clock as the stratum is better. So if the 
router is not synchronized to an external source but must act as a NTP source 
then this is when we want to use the NTP master command. Every 
situation/requirement is different and
 we need to ultimately understand the NTP Master command as to whether or not 
we need to use the command or not.
