I have a Nexus 5598 with a layer 3 moudule.
I have configured NTP and this is working to the peer source, via a FW.
My problem is, that I have configured Distrubute so that down stream Routers/Switches can source their NTP update from the Nexus Switches.
However when I configure the down stream devices to receive updates from the loopback address the, the association is left in .INIT. state. If I configure to use a VLAN HSRP address the ntp assocaitaion work's, ass follows
address ref clock st when poll reach delay offset disp
~x.x.x.10 .INIT. 16 - 1024 0 0.000 0.000 15937. - loopback
~x.x.x.11 .INIT. 16 - 1024 0 0.000 0.000 15937. - loopback
*~x.x.x.254 x.x.x..227 3 115 128 177 2.136 23.156 66.268 - HSRP
NTP debug on a down stream switch, shows the ntp message being sent with no reply to the loopback, the loopback address is pingable.
Has any one seen this sort of issue ?
Many thanks
