Re: [Ubnt_users] NTP

[Jesse DuPont]

Do you log to a remote syslog server or just the local syslog? I use a remote syslog server and it has it's own date/time stamp on the log entries it applies as it receives them. Obviously I'll only see log entries if the radios are linked (if the link is required to reach the remote syslog server). This way, I can sort by the syslog server's time stamp and at least have solid order of events to look at.

There's a chance that the host you are given could be down (there's a small amount of time between health checks and servers being pulled from the pool). The addresses returned by N.vendor.pool.ntp.org vary for load balancing. You might get a different host every time you make a DNS query. If you have your own stratum 1 or stratum 2 server you should look at contributing to the NTP pool: http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/ We have a GPS-based stratum 1 feeding some stratum 2 servers that participate in the pool. Traffic is minimal. We switched to a purpose-built NTP appliance combined with a stratum-2 cluster after we noticed that the time from LMG CTMs and Cambium CMMs was somewhat inconsistent.  At least on the LMG side we were told that their NTP was intended only for rough tower-local NTP services (we saw +/- 5 second variance). We're currently using the $300 TM1000A (make sure you are on latest firmware) for stratum 1.

Time zone set correctly but still off an hour.
