The output shows that Device B has synchronized to Device A. The stratum level of Device B is 3,
and that of Device A is 2.

Network requirements
Perform the following configurations to synchronize time among devices:
• As shown in Figure 78, the loca
l clock of LB A is to be configured as a reference source, with the
stratum level 2.
• The local clock LB C is to be configured as a reference source, with the stratum level 1.
• LB B operates in client mode and LB A is to be used as the NTP server of LB B.
• LB C operates in symmetric-active mode and LB B acts as the peer of LB C.

Configuration procedure
• Set the IP address for each interface as shown in Figure 78. (Details not shown.)
• Configure LB A:
# Specify the local clock as the reference source, with the stratum level 2.

• Configure LB B:
# Specify LB A as the NTP server of LB B.
