    Objectives
    In this activity, you will configure NTP on R1 and R2 to allow time synchronization.

    Background / Scenario
    Network Time Protocol (NTP) synchronizes the time of day among a set of distributed time servers and
    clients. While there are a number of applications that require synchronized time, this lab will focus on
    correlating events that are listed in the system log and other time-specific events from multiple network
    devices. NTP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) as its transport protocol. All NTP communications use
    Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
    An NTP server usually receives its time from an authoritative time source, such as an atomic clock attached
    to a time server. The NTP server then distributes this time across the network. NTP is extremely efficient. No
    more than one packet per minute is necessary to synchronize two devices to within a millisecond of each
    other.

    Instructions

    Step 1: NTP Server


    a. Server N1 is already configured as the NTP Server for this topology. Verify its configuration under
    Services > NTP.
    Open configuration window

    b. From R1, ping N1 (209.165.200.225) to verify connectivity. The ping should be successful.
    c. Repeat the ping to N1 from R2 to verify connectivity to N1.

    Step 2: Configure the NTP Clients


    Cisco devices can be configured to refer to an NTP server to use to synchronize their clocks. It is important to
    keep time consistent among all devices. Configure R1 and R2 as NTP clients so their clocks are
    synchronized. Both R1 and R2 will use N1 server as their NTP server.
    a. Check the current NTP and clock settings as shown below:
    R1# show ntp status
    %NTP is not enabled.
    R1# show clock detail
    *0:1:53.745 UTC Mon Mar 1 1993
    Time source is hardware calendar

    b. Configure R1 and R2 as NTP Clients. Use the ntp server command to specify an NTP server, as shown
    below:
    R1# conf t
    R1(config)# ntp server 209.165.200.225
    c. Repeat this configuration on R2.

    Step 3: Verify NTP settings


    a. Check the clocks on R1 and R2 again to verify that they are synchronized:
    R1# show clock detail
    12:7:18.451 UTC Sat Oct 12 2019
    Time source is NTP
    Note: When working on physical routers, allow a few minutes before R1 and R2 clocks are synchronized.
    With Packet Tracer you can use the Fast Forward Time button to speed up synchronization.
    Execute the same command on R2.
    Question:

    Are the clocks synchronized?


    Sí. R1 y R2 tienen la misma hora que N1.
    b. Check the NTP status and NTP associations by using the following commands to verify NTP operation
    and configuration.
    R1# show ntp status
    Clock is synchronized, stratum 2, reference is 209.165.200.225
    <Output omitted>

    R1# show ntp associations
