Device B is 3, while that of Device A is 2.

Configuring the NTP symmetric mode
Network requirements
Perform the following configurations to synchronize time among routers:
• As shown in Figure 26 , the local clock of Device A is to be configured as a reference source, with
the stratum level of 2.
• Device B works in the client mode and Device A is to be used as the NTP server of Device B.
• Device C works in the symmetric-active mode and Device B will act as peer of Device C. Device C
is the symmetric-active peer while Device B is the symmetric-passive peer.
