Jim,
From what I understand about NTP, neither router will ever sync to the
other. The reason they're doing that is they're both clients, in addition
to being servers. And a client won't accept an update from a server unless
that server is synchronized to a higher stratum source. Point rtr 1 out to
a registered NTP source on the 'Net, and it should start working. I think
there might be a command to make a router with a calendar (hardware clock) a
stratum 0, but I'm not sure about that one.

Hi all,
I have 2 2500's connected via ethernet and they can ping each other's
loopback
and ethernet addresses.
This is the NTP config of each:
RTR-1
ntp master 6
ntp server 192.168.2.2 source lo0
RTR-2
ntp master 7
ntp server 192.168.1.1 source lo0
Both routers have there system clocks set to different dates and times.
When I do a "show ntp asso det" on rtr-2, it shows
192.168.1.1 configured, insane, invalid...
Why is this and what should I do about it?
I thought NTP will compare "notes" and select the source with the lowest
statum to be the authoritative source and that the other will sync to it but
that doesn't seem to happening.
Thanks, Jim
