Hi,

AFAIK

ntp master [number] will assign the priority to the hardware clock present.
           --- if a lower priority public clock exists then it will latch to
that.

clock calendar-valid command is used after a reboot, it will tell router if
the hardware clock is correct i.e it had previously synced(before reboot) &
to use the same.

This is what i understood while reading as well as configuring !!!!
