Configuring NTP for IPv6 on Cisco Networks
Configuring NTP for IPv6 on Cisco Networks
In my last blog I discussed Configuring HSRP for IPv6 on Cisco Networks. Since it was already on my mind, I decided to continue the IPv6-oriented blogging and show how to configure and verify NTP for IPv6. Let’s see how it works.
First, let’s see the topology I am using, shown in figure 1:
For instructor-led Cisco training see our CCNA class schedule.
Figure 1-NTP for IPv6 topology
I will not show the configuration of the IPv6 addresses on the interfaces or the routing (it is all static for this scenario), I will just show the IPv6 – NTP – related configs.
On R1, figure 2 shows the relevant config:
Figure 2-R1 NTP config
Figure 3 shows what is happening on R2:
Figure 3-R2 NTP config
It turns out that the IPv6 address shown in figure 3 is the IPv6 address that is on loopback 100 of R1. The last piece is R3. Figure 4 shows that:
Figure 4-R3 NTP config
In like manner, the IPv6 address shown in figure 4 is the IPv6 address that is configured on R2’s loopback 100 interface.
Now let’s verify NTP messages are occurring. I issued a couple of debug commands on R2, shown in figure 5:
Figure 5-R3 R2 debug output
Clearly I can verify that the NTP messages are appearing, and most assuredly they in IPv6 format! I’m thinking this IPv6 thing is eventually going to take off! J
Since we are here, let’s check the clock on R3:
Figure 6-R3 R3 show clock detail
And that’s the way it is, Friday, September 11th, 2015.
If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to post them….
Until next time.
