[8.163][QUESTION][ANSWERED] NTP functionality

Hi All

If I enable the NTP functionality on my ASG (pic 1) and don't have any pf rules the NTP traffic fails.

2011:04:17-11:52:59 ***** ulogd[5221]: id="2001" severity="info" sys="SecureNet" sub="packetfilter" name="Packet dropped" action="drop" fwrule="60002" initf="eth1" outitf="ppp0" srcmac="0:1f:c6:e2:c5:1d" dstmac="0:b0:c2:2:e4:4f" srcip="192.168.2.1" dstip="192.43.244.18" proto="17" length="76" tos="0x00" prec="0x00" ttl="127" srcport="123" dstport="123"


The ntp server was : time.nist.gov (which is already set at -pic2 )

On an old port Jack (https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/astaroorg/f/51/t/20929) mentioned that the best way to do this is by allowing the traffic via pf rules. 

Is there a known issue with the NTP functionality? I can resolve the issue by disabling NTp functionality (pic1) and creating the relevant pf rules

Thanks

  • yeap it does. 

    The output is : 

    ***:/root # cc get ntp
    ntp = {
              "allowed_networks" => [
                                      "REF_DefaultInternalNetwork",
                                      "REF_DefaultCiscoRWPool",
                                      "REF_DefaultRWPool",
                                      "REF_DefaultL2TPPool"
                                    ],
              "servers" => [
                             "REF_aUDxVGYbtt",
                             "REF_NtpPool",
                             "REF_XtzhKCzDvj"
                           ],
              "status" => 1
            }


    I can confirm I have 3 NTp servers one of which is the one blocked
