hey,all:
I have a switch A that uses another switch B as NTP server. But I can't find any command in B shows it configured as server.

any idea how it works?

thanks,

Henry

A#sh ntp s
Clock is synchronized, stratum 4, reference is XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-- this is the IP of switch B---
nominal freq is 119.2092 Hz, actual freq is 119.2089 Hz, precision is 2**18
reference time is CA126CA3.8643C02B (07:38:11.524 EDT Thu Jun 7 2007)
clock offset is 0.0813 msec, root delay is 14.43 msec
root dispersion is 3.04 msec, peer dispersion is 0.15 msec

In B:
B# sh run | i ntp
ntp clock-period 17179956
ntp update-calendar
ntp server 10.10.1.1--our first NTP server
ntp server 10.10.1.3--our second NTP server

#sh ntp sta

It shows that the switch is pointing to 10.10.1.3 as the NTP server it gets its info from---so that tells me 10.10.1.3 IS the NTP server, not the switch. I did not know a Cisco switch could be configured as an NTP server.
