Hi ,

Yes... when you f ex when the ntp packets are going trough some kind off
iltering device (firewall, acl's), you would want to set the source
interface so that you can specify this as source of the ntp packets..,

Does anyone see any benefit of explicitly stating the ntp source
interface? I have seen some labs with it and others that don't. I have
not seen anything that sticks out on why I would use this optional
feature.

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi,
 
I just read Solie (CCIE Lab Practical Studies vol. I)
yup, I think the correct way on the master side is like this :
 
ntp authenticate
ntp authentication-key 1 md5 september
ntp trusted-key 1
ntp master
 
and on the client side is like this :

ntp authenticate
ntp authentication-key 1 md5 september
ntp trusted-key 1
ntp server 1.1.1.1 key 1
 
this is a correction of what I sent a while ago replying somebody...
 
Rgds,
Thomwin

Hi Jaycee, Did that config work for you..? I guess you are missing the
ntp
authenticate command on the server...., by configuring that command on
the
server side, it is really not authenticating the client, but it just
helps
to send an appropriate hash in response when the client is
authenticating..
Hope i clarified it.
