NTP Authentication

thomsonb · ‎09-22-2009

I am having trouble getting my NTP to authenticate i can get it to sync with the ntp authenticate command out of the router 2 config and then enter it back in and it continues to sync but i am not sure if it is actually using the authentication at that point. here are the configs:

ROuter1 (Master):

ntp authentication-key 10 md5 Mysecret

ntp authenticate

ntp trusted-key 10

ntp server 192.192.192.192 source FastEthernet0/0

end

Router2:

ntp authentication-key 10 md5 Mysecret

ntp authenticate

ntp server 10.0.0.0 key 10

end

You have a configuration issue.

Read the following docs:

Thanks for the reply, I had already figured out my mistake which was putting the trusted key command on the right client side box instead of the server box.

thanks for your reply
