The following criteria does apply to us In considering the quality of advice, I consider things like responsible use of Internet resources, the environment, etc. well ahead of whether or not somebody will lose their job. The criteria may apply to you; however the criteria should be noted when recommending the use of stratum 1 servers. Blanket recommendations to use those servers is very bad advice and represents irresponsible use of Internet resources. } -Original Message- } From: John Nemeth [mailto:jnemeth@;victoria.tc.ca] } Sent: Friday, October 11, 2002 7:36 PM } To: Ellis, Andrew; [EMAIL PROTECTED] } } On Mar 3, 2:55pm, "Ellis, Andrew" wrote: } } } } Go to the US Naval Observatory site at: http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/ntp.html } } and pick a stratum 1 time server and have one of your routers get time from } } ACK!

Re: NTP server [7:55388]
here are a couple of internet sources I use: time.nist.gov ns.arc.nasa.gov tick.usno.navy.mil I haven't looked in a while, but these days you can probably do a google search and get a zillion reliable time servers. if your client requires the IP address, you can ping each of the names, and get the IP in return. have a single device synchronize against one or another of these sources, then have all your other devices synchronize against the one hitting the public side. Keeps unnecessary internet traffic to a minimum.

RE: NTP server [7:55388]
I did this recently for a customer, different router platforms have different NTP capabilitites. Best thing to do is look on www.cisco.com this is where I got all the necessary info from.

RE: NTP server [7:55388]
Go to the US Naval Observatory site at: http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/ntp.html and pick a stratum 1 time server and have one of your routers get time from 3 different servers, preferably different stratums. After that you can use that router as the server for the other routers and PC's. You can install software that runs as a service on nt and 2000 machines that will make time requests from your router/NTP server. Quite a few stratum 1 time sources do not want multiple clients from your organization all requesting time from them so just use one of your routers as the client. Keep in mind that there are issues with NTP so you will want to configure access lists to control what can get time and who it can be given to. -Drew -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 11, 2002 1:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: NTP server [7:55388] Hi, Anybody know NTP server can be configured with a cisco router.If so, how to do that?
