Leap-Second

[diemer12345]

Hi, we have multiple cisco devices on our network such as ASA, PIX, 3560s, 3750s, 6500s and more. Will these devices be synch OK with the NTP server if it is rebooted for the coming leap-second? Basically are there any kbnown issues with cisco devices and leap-seconds?

Never heard of any issues with cisco devices and leap-second.

Ok, So if the NTP servers are rebooted will the above cisco devices sync with the NTP servers when they come back up or will the devies have to be rebooted or a command entered to sync somehow etc? I need a more definitive answer.

Hi Daniel
