Configuring MPLS VPN Time Synchronization in Symmetric Peers Mode
Network requirements
As shown in
two VPNs are present on PE 1 and PE 2: VPN 1 and VPN 2. To
synchronize the time between PE 1 and PE 2 in VPN 1, perform the following configurations:
z
PE 1’s local clock is to be used as a reference source, with the stratum level of 1.
z
PE 2 is synchronized to PE 1 in the symmetric peers mode, and specify that the VPN
instance is VPN 1.
Configuration procedure
1) Configure IP addresses for interfaces (omitted).
2) Configuration on PE 1:
# Specify the local clock as the reference source, with the stratum level of 1.
[PE1] ntp-service refclock-master 1
3) Configuration on PE 2:
# Specify PE 1 in VPN 1 as the symmetric-passive peer of PE 2.
[PE2] ntp-service unicast-peer vpn-instance vpn1 10.1.1.2
# View the NTP session information and status information on PE 2 a certain period of time later.
The information should show that PE 2 has been synchronized to PE 1, with the clock stratum
level of 2.
