NTP sync not working

Hello,    I have two Fortigates 60F running in HA,  firmware is 7.2.5.

 

The firewall works as NTP server as well as NTP client.  No matter which externa NTP server I use there is no syncNTP.jpg

What's wrong with the config ?

Hello @tanaki ,

 

You can review this document about how to solve ntp sync problem. 

 

Also, can you share this command output with us? 

 

config system ntp
show full-configuration
end

Hi,

thank you for the reply, here is the output:

 

config system ntp
set ntpsync enable
set type fortiguard
set syncinterval 360
set source-ip 192.168.1.118
set source-ip6 ::
set server-mode enable
set authentication disable
set interface "internal1" "ssl.root" ............

 

192.168.1.118 is the addres of the wan port. I did try several NTP pools/server  apart from the Forti NTP   with same result.

Hi @tanaki ,

 

Can you try again with this configuration?

 

Also, do you have any local NTP?

 

config system ntp
unset source-ip
end

Hi @tanaki,

 

Is there an upstream firewall? If yes, please make sure it is not blocking NTP port 123. You can also refer to this article: https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-An-alternate-way-to-sync-the-NTP-server-to...
