Howto synchronize time on transparent bridge routerboards

[safi2266]

Hello Folks

I get internet form my ISP through transparent bridge with WDS configured with class B private network (172.16.x.x) both of two point are RB433 v5.14

I have some issue with my ISP so I need to get some graph and log from my point side and all these stuff regarding to current time so I try to synchronize time in station point so I enabled SNTP client with mode unicast providing two working time servers IP nearest to my location, but the time doesn’t synchronized ever

I realize that the bridge need to internet access but I do not know how to configure this, So I need your help to configure my point to get current time from time servers

TIA
SaFi

for ntp to work it has to have ip address assigned to it, that is able to access the itnernet. Make sure you have enabled that on the router.

I have found that (at least some) NTP servers require that “/ system clock time-zone-name” be set correctly.

I did it already

for workaround for this I set date and time manually on clock setting, waiting other helps

You need to set an IP address on the bridge interface

/IP ADDRESS ADD ADDRESS=X.X.X.X/X INTERFACE=BRIDGE_INTERFACE

You then need to set a default route for the mikrotik to route its traffic to

/IP ROUTE ADD DESTINATION ADDRESS=0.0.0.0/0 Gateway=YOUR GATEWAY

If you need name resolution as well

/IP DNS SET SERVERS=8.8.8.8

If you don’t have an NTP server on your own network, any public NTP server will do–preferably one near your location. A web search should turn up several.

It’s hard to know exactly what the problem is without your current configuration. If you can post the output from the following, it should be easy to identify the problem, or at least suggest things to test:

• / system clock export compact
  / system ntp export compact
  / ip address export compact
  / ip route export compact
