Baek,
 
As i know most of the Cisco devices can act as a NTP server. The most important Q
 one has to ask is will they be reliable ? The reason is many of these boxes dont have
 an internal clock, so once u set the time and date and make them the server the others
 will have it.When the box fails NTP will not be there for any of the boxes and also the
 time/date need to be reset.
 
Also some of the boxes depending on the code wont be able to update there calendar
etc, so u might want to look at these. In a small setup and or lab setup this should work
fine.
 
Any other thoughts ?
 
HTH.

Annu.

Does anyone happen to know if the 3500 or 6500 series switches can act
as an NTP server?

Thanks,
