A router makes a poor ntp server; it's not a very accurate clock.

Better to stand up a real time server or simply have every device go right out to a real ntp server (like us.pool.ntp.org) or if you need an IP, use the
Ip for time.nist.gov

(do not use time.windows.com, also not very accurate)

Hi All
I tested NTP configuration in our lab running on cisco router 2611. In real
world scenario where do you place the NTP Router in the network. To secure
the box what should I look-out for.

thanks
Paul
