ISE 2.4 NTP local stratum

rhuel.phils · ‎08-20-2019

Hi,

is there a way we can change the stratum of Local (127.127.1.0) NTP? Currently our ntp is pointing to local because it has lower stratum although we configure another twO NTP server but it has higher stratum compared to local and we cant change it.

How to change or update local ntp stratum?

- Are the NTP servers properly configured ? Below you will find a similar thread :

I guess it's working as designed since lower Stratum is always better. Perhaps the issue is that your desired NTP source is not as good as it perhaps ought to be? Perhaps you can fake your NTP servers to present a high stratum than ISE's internal NTP?

Why does ISE even have its own NTP server ?
