Hi,
My customer have used Cisco 1812J and It have configured as a NTP server.
I tried to connect Linux-PC(NTP Client) with Cisco 1812J, but it's never synchronize.
("ntpq -p" on Linux-PC)
remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
==============================================================================
192.168.2.241 10.13.9.241 2 u 59 64 1 0.512 0.044 0.001
IP 192.168.2.241 (Cisco 1218J)
IP 192.168.2.21 (Linux-PC)
I monitored each packet using tcpdump, and I found "precision" was "e0" (-32) on reply data from Cisco 1812J.
I think -32 is too little. (Usually, -9 to -20 are specified)
Is -32 an appropriate value ?

Does anybody know the modification method of this "precision" data ?
Please tell me.
Thanks.

One possible problem when NTP does not sync is that the client does not have good IP connectivity to the server. But from the output that you posted it looks to me like the client and server are communicating satisfactorily (and since they appear to be in a connected subnet connectivity should not be a problem).
Another possible issue occurs when the configured server (your 1812J) is not learning correct/authoritative NTP time. Could you post the output of show ntp status from the 1812J?

Richard, Thank you for your reply.
OK, I will post the NTP status of 1812J, if I can get it. ( 1812J is different in a person in charge. )
By the way, you said "server is not learning correct/authoritative NTP time", Is not "leap indicator" used in such a case ?
(I forgot to comment, ntpdate execute before running the ntpd and it's successfully complete.)
Is not the cause found only by the data of sending and receiving?
Is the method of easily knowing the reason why NTP doesn't synchronize?
