Hi,
For many years we have run stratum 2 NTP servers on some of our mail
gateways. The primary purpose is to provide an NTP service to assorted
RFC1918 networks. We are planning to virtualise those mail gateways,
and so we need to find a new home for NTP. I am aware that we could
purchase dedicated GPS-based stratum 0/1 NTP servers, but I don't want
the hassle of getting a good GPS signal in to the heart of our data
centres and our time sync requirements aren't too tight. Before
purchasing three dedicated 1U servers which I plan to site at three
different (geographically close) campuses, I thought I'd ask if anyone
has any cheap/neat solutions which can support multiple NICs/VLANs and
have a generally drift-free clock. Bonus points for kit available off
the shelf in the UK. Apologies if my terminology offends any NTP gurus;
hopefully my requirements are clear.
Many thanks,
Jonathan.
